Management and Leadership

Overview

People are the key to any effective humanitarian response.  Managing people can be difficult at the best of times, but during the chaos and stress of a complex humanitarian response, the ability to manage people is crucial for the success of any programme. 

 
This two-day course will introduce you to the fundamentals of good people management.  You will have the opportunity to explore theories and practices of good management and will learn how to employ different techniques of communication, negotiation, team building and conflict management in order to develop a concrete set of management skills. You will have an opportunity to reflect on their own style, strengths, and weaknesses as a manager in light of their new knowledge and skills. Upon completion, you will be able to demonstrate several essential skills for managing their teams with greater confidence and success.
