Strengthen your management skills

In-depth leadership development

How do I motivate my staff? How can I get them on board with changes? How do I hold ‘breaking bad news’ meetings? How do I cope with conflicts in the team? A lot is demanded from managers: they are expected to create a vision, to lead a team, and to have well-developed social and communication skills. The four-day ‘Being a manager within the University’ leadership programme will teach you how you can effectively manage your team and how you can create a climate in which your staff function optimally and in a pleasant way.

Please note that the language of instruction is Dutch.

Objective

The training programme aims to teach you as a manager to take more control of your position, to make more impact and to continue to develop in your role. You will find out where your strengths lie and how you can use them, what motivates you, and how you can adapt your leadership style to a specific situation or person in order to achieve the best possible result as a team. Personal leadership lies at the basis of this.

Programme

The ‘Being a manager within the University’ training programme consists of a combination of theory and practice, and comprises two blocks. The first block will mainly focus on your personal leadership and management. The second block will focus more on collaboration, the influence of power, and communication skills. After the first two days (block 1), you will be able to apply your new knowledge and skills to your work, and you can use any issues and situations that you encounter as practical examples in block 2. Exchanging such practical examples is an important element of the programme.
