STEP UP: Leadership and Supervisory Skills

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Leadership has always been an important aspect of work and people relations, so when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, this became more important than ever. So what does this challenge require? This requires leaders who are able to adapt and lead people toward the new normal. Learning how to lead becomes more important. While we can still rely on some time-tested principles, we will also introduce some mindsets that may be unique to the needs of the current time.
In this module, we will explore principles that can help us navigate this journey. We will attempt to understand how to influence people, coach them, and develop their skills. We will also identify their differences in communication styles and know how to respond as a leader. We will explore how coaching can empower people and help them feel a sense of accountability in what they do especially at times when we work from home or could not always directly see our employees. The approach shall be loosely based on some concepts from the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey, but we shall have it tailored to the Filipino experience. We will also have a discussion about communicating change.
