Pedagogical objectives
The aim of this workshop is to deal with a posture issue in an actionable way, with situations that reflect the level of complexity we face when managing managers. It's a workshop we often find in programs dedicated to advanced, complex management topics, from leadership to change management, emotions and conflict.
- Put more trust in your managers while maintaining the right level of control.
- Adopt the right distance and let go to gain perspective without being disconnected from the field.
- Engage your managers so that they engage their teams.
The program
- Letting go at the right level: how to give managers autonomy while maintaining visibility of what's happening in the field?
Example of tools: adopt a "positive a priori" towards your N-1s, set up routines by organizing regular meetings with your N-2s.
- Engage those who engage
Example of tools: the "disagreement and commitment" method to manage cases of misalignment, key phrases and to help your N-1s convey difficult messages.
When you leave this workshop, you'll know...
And it'll come in handy for...
- Avoid exhausting yourself (and your managers) by micromanaging managers or their teams.
- Develop your managers and help them develop their teams.
- Manage change even when you don't have control over its operational implementation.
