Managing for Engagement Training Course

Recently Lucinda Carney ran one of our monthly webinars on how to develop an engagement strategy. During her research, Lucinda came across the 2023 State of the Global Workplace report by Gallup. She could hardly believe how far behind the rest of the world the UK was lagging in engagement terms – 10% versus 23%. This inspired Lucinda to develop a new virtual training offering: ‘Managing for Engagement‘ as line managers account for 70% of the variance in engagement. Upskilling them could be the key to your business gaining competitive advantage.

Purpose: To provide managers and team leaders with the knowledge, skills and tools to maximise the engagement and performance of their team.
This programme has been developed by psychologist, experienced trainer and bestselling author Lucinda Carney and is suitable for new and experienced people managers.

Mode of Delivery: This interactive programme is delivered virtually over 4 x 120 minute modules.
