What others have to say about this course:

Very informative and the trainer was fantastic. 100% everyone should attend this course as it gave a better insight into who I am and what I want out of my management role. Very well presented workshop with a small group which was a real plus for me. The activities were great and will help me moving forward. Intelsius Group Was very helpful and informative. Thought it was very insightful and I can take a lot away about my people skills, not being afraid to delegate. Made me realise that I need to make time, ask the team how they would like to receive feedback, do 1:1s, and how to delegate, also I need to confirm what is expected of me. Really good engaging event and plenty of useful tools to take away with me. A great workshop – really engaging – especially found interesting the explanation of management and situational management styles. Activities we did were really interesting and gave me so much to think about and ideas on how to approach the team differently.”
