The course contains four modules of three hours intensive training,
assignments and a final examination. The course content (outlined
below) will give each person attending a sound understanding of basic
management skills using actual examples in their own industry. Each
trainee receives a comprehensive set of notes to refer back to, a
folder to keep them in and a framed certificate of attendance.

course convener is Richard A. Mulvey, Author (11 books published),
Businessman, International Conference Speaker, long time management

Course
Content
The
course content is very flexible and can easily be adjusted to meet
the needs of the trainees. If you have a number of people in your
team you may consider having the training done on your premises
and in that case we would be able to focus the training entirely
on your company and management styles. This focused training is
obviously the most effective and you may be surprised to find that
it is often the most cost effective as well.
The
course is run in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town over two full
days with two modules each day. Each module starts with a review
of the skills covered in the previous module followed by interactive
lectures, practical examples, shared experiences of how the skills
work in action and a written test. |
Module

Introduction
to Management Skills
In
this section we review the basics of being a manager.

Management
Time
is your most important resource. You can have the best team in the

explore: Why you are bad at time management and how to get better,
planning your day / week / month and sticking to the plan, prioritising
and delegating and using all the tricks to make the best use of
your time.
Managing
Meetings
We
all have to attend meetings. A recent American survey suggests that
executives now spend as much as 75% of their eight hour day in meetings,
and while we are not as bad in South Africa we are catching up.
Many meetings , however , are a waste of time and in this section
we will learn how to make meetings efficient, productive and innovative.
If used properly, meetings are a very useful way to communicate
and it is our task to make meetings the most useful part of the
day.

are the life blood of any business but in today’s competitive business
environment having happy customers is just not enough. In this section
