TRAINING APPROACH

A variety of dynamic and interactive teaching methods are used, including real business case scenarios, discussions, role-playing activities and team presentations.

In addition to training sessions on the various functions within an organization, we are proud to deliver an innovative and integrated approach rooted in four types of tools:

Introductory seminar to help you contextualize your understanding of the managerial role

Using a self-assessment questionnaire, which has proven to be a useful tool for thousands of managers to date, and a series of in-class exercises, you will take stock of your career, examine your management-related values, attitudes, beliefs and behaviours, and explore your approach to employee motivation and engagement.
Two three-hour personalized coaching sessions with an expert in working with business professionals

This will help you draw relevant lessons from past experiences, improve your introspective ability, experiment with new practices and strengthen methods that will help you move forward.
A learning log that will be used throughout the program

After each of the sessions, you are encouraged to note what you have learned and add your personal thoughts about how they apply to your organization and your own development journey.
A strategy sharing and implementation day at the end of the program

Engage in a discussion with your peers about the conditions that help or hinder the process of translating knowledge into action.
