This programme offers a practical foundation in supervisory management, helping participants build the confidence and skills needed to lead effectively in today’s workplace. Through an exploration of management history and leadership theory, students will gain a clear understanding of how modern supervisory practices have evolved — and how they can be applied in real working environments.
Participants will develop an awareness of the distinct roles of leadership and management, and the key traits and styles that define effective managers. The course places a strong focus on human resource management and the interpersonal skills that underpin successful supervision, including communication, motivation, delegation, and conflict resolution.
By linking theory to practice, this programme enables learners to apply their knowledge directly to workplace scenarios, improving both team performance and personal effectiveness as a supervisor or team leader.
This programme is ideal for individuals aiming to take on supervisory or first-line management roles across a wide range of industries. Graduates will be well positioned to lead teams, manage day-to-day operations, and support organisational goals with confidence.
