Better 1-1s = Better Results

By MMU

Regular 1-1s allow you, as a manager, to address a range of topics and challenges with your team members in a relatively informal manner, albeit aided by a level of structure and consistency. You should embrace frequent 1-1s with your team, regardless of how often you see them in person, as they provide the opportunity to ‘check-in’ with them, not to ‘check-up’ on them; to understand their current priorities, workload and challenges.  This course uses scenarios and outstanding manager top tips to help you learn about: the benefits of 1-1s and how to plan and prepare for them - frequency, location and agenda; regardless of whether your team member is based on site with you or remotely facilitating the meetings, using great coaching skills, and acting on feedback scheduling of tasks and reviewing and following up on action points More Information Industry & Sector Hospitality, Retail, Funeral, Business Business outcomes Recruitment, Retention, Induction/Onboarding Skills & Training Appraisals, Coaching, Management Jobs & Roles Manager, Deputy Manager, Supervisor, Director, Operations Director, Finance Director, HR Manager Course Author Mastering Multi-Units

Giants' Shoulders - Making Project Connections

By IIL Europe Ltd

Giant's Shoulders - Making Project Connections All projects are a journey to towards a goal. All projects share the characteristics of being a temporary endeavor with a uniqueness of scope or environment that makes them very different from operations type work. The temporariness of the project requires that we manage time - that valuable resource that will consume and surprise us if we don't manage it well. A project schedule is our representation of future time - or future memories - that we build together to provide us with confidence, guidance and measuring points along the journey. A well-built schedule requires three key ingredients: An agreed scope representing the requirements of the stakeholders Estimates of task durations by the performers Solid connections between the tasks - Dependencies and sequencing What you will learn: This session and exercise will focus on that third element - the connections. It is no more or less important than the other two. However it does often provide an opportunity for conversations that can be referred to as 'storming' - in the Tuckman/Jensen model of Team Development (Forming/Storming/Norming/Performing/Adjourning). The game is designed to provide an opportunity to practice and improve our ability to identify connections/ associations/links between famous individuals from the Arts, Science and Craft worlds. We can use the same skill and ability to identify connections/ dependencies/ sequences between our project tasks.

Project Management: The Intentional Profession

By IIL Europe Ltd

Project Management: The Intentional Profession 'To be is to do.' Project managers focus on the tools, techniques and effort it takes to 'do' well and deliver the change that mission demands. But we can also choose to 'do good,' and that is what providing our skills as pro bono services to our communities is all about. Like PMs, service-oriented Non-Profit Organizations struggle to deliver community services in a resource-constrained environment. PMs have mastered the skills needed to make things happen in these environments. With the 2015 Project Management Day of Service (PMDoS), two executives organized roughly 400 PMs to assist NPOs in defining and scoping nearly 100 projects - in one day! That is intent. That is engagement. That is meaningful project management. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
