Management and Leadership Training Programme
At Striding Out we know that entrepreneurs no matter of their age are time-starved, due to the nature of being self-employed. Therefore, we�ve put together a series of four monthly evening workshops from 6pm - 9pm (from February to May 2006). Plus a fifth review workshop to close the programme in September 2006.
You�ll learn how to:
- Enhance your communication and negotiation skills to get what you want.
- Improve your understanding of communications, people development and strategy.
- Become a self-supporting learning set.
- Activate tools for strategic thinking about your business to work �on� your business.
- Develop your own coaching and facilitation skills.
- Motivate and develop other people.
- Discover that good management is creative and fun.
The workshops will also cover:
- Facilitation skills for action learning sets.
- Coaching skills for buddying and mentoring.
In conjunction to the workshops, participants will have access to ongoing email and phone support for a further four months.
February 2006 Workshop 1: Communication
This will cover:
- Basic principles of good communication and assertive behaviour.
- How to facilitate a discussion in meetings.

To continue your personal development, participants will be given guidance on facilitation and coaching skills, and offered the chance to be co-facilitators on any of the subsequent three workshops.
March 2006 Workshop 2: Strategic Planning
How to �step back� from the day to day running of your business and work �on� it rather than �in it. We will look at:
- The difference in thinking between operational delivery and strategy.

- The communications strategy you�ll need to take your plans forward, meet your targets and fulfil your goals.
April 2006 Workshop 3: Managing professional and social boundaries
Building a creative young team to help run your business is exciting and fun. As a young entrepreneur, you�ll want to create an informal and friendly atmosphere, and, while the business is small, you want to feel part of that team. But how do you cope when the situation requires formal authority, more discipline or a different attitude?
This workshop will help you:
- Navigate your way through the minefield of getting the right balance between authority and friendship; discipline and fun.
- Set Standards and maintain professional boundaries.
May 2006 Workshop 4: Motivation
Motivation is a complex subject which has been researched over many years. Drawing on the theoretical background this workshop will look at how to:
- Get the best out of people day to day.
- Help people to learn and contribute to your enterprise.
- Keep motivated and manage your and your staff�s learning through buddying and action learning sessions.
