Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. Learn More in Five Days Than Some Managers Learn in Forty Weeks Interpersonal skills Senior Managers People management skills are the most important skills a manager can develop. What differentiates the leader from a manager is that the leader has acquired not just the technical and strategic skills but has the interpersonal skills to make things happen. No doubt on your way up through the ranks, you have come across managers who--while they may be very good at other aspects of their job--are decidedly lacking in interpersonal skills. And you know, and they have been told, that their future will be affected greatly by this lack of human skills. This program is totally devoted to developing those managerial skills in people on their way to the top. It covers motivating, assessing, rewarding, leading and developing people. Very simple models of interpersonal relationships are used to focus attention on understanding one's own behavior, its impact on others, understanding the goals of others and integrating a group into a winning team. Professor John Hunt, Program Director, deliberately limits the number of people on this program to guarantee personal attention between tutors and participants. To match the content precisely to your needs, we ask you to do some pre-course work which includes a survey of those who work with you. This data is linked to our own large databank on how effective managers operate. We then work with you to develop your own specific goals as a manager. How long is the course program?.
