Course Description:

Anyone in a position of managing or leading others will benefit from the message delivered by these managing performance training. 

This training set out to help you to manage the performance of your workforce through common sense techniques that focus on the effective use of communication and goal setting to improve productivity and increase morale and motivation. 

The session will steer away from the procedural, form-filling approach to performance management/appraisals and instead focus on the skills required to effectively cooperate with team members, develop their skills and ensure they feel incentivised to succeed. With the techniques outlined in this training course you will feel empowered to enhance the performance of your team and begin to collaborate with them to improve their behaviors and ability in their role. 
Course Contents:
Managing Performance to Increase Productivity with our Quality Training

Management is ultimately about getting things done through others. Without a structured and clear approach to managing performance, where employees know what is expected of them and how they should approach their role, a manager is unable to effectively meet the level of productivity that is required. This will reflect badly on them and can impact on their own development. 

Therefore, managing performance can be one of the single most important things for a manager to get right. This requires a goal-focused, common-sense approach to working with employees that ensures they are motivated and focused on success.

These ‘Managing Performance’ training course materials will provide you with everything you need to develop the skills and build the confidence of your management audience.
 
Ultimately, the aim of these managing performance training course materials is to ensure you have the knowledge and skills to help you develop a team of high performing employees that are focused on success.
Course Topics:
The Importance of Managing Performance – Establishing the key elements to a managing performance approach, why this is important and the benefits it can have for a manager. 

Making Performance Management Work – Changing current perceptions to performance management and highlighting the key factors that will help make it a success for managers. 

Setting Goals – Identifying what makes goal setting work and how it underpins the entire managing performance process. Linking goal setting to record keeping to ensure effective processes.

Reasons for Poor Performance – Highlighting the underlying factors behind poor performance and individual mindsets. 

Helping Poor Performers – Focusing on behaviour and results – translating ‘attitude’ to observed behaviours and looking to create improvement opportunities. Activities that review specific workplace scenarios. 

Developing Average Performers – Knowing values and motivators, what drives performers and how to get the best out of their performance whilst still encouraging them. 

Guiding High Performers – Establishing boundaries, creating opportunities, giving feedback and knowing when to praise. 

Managing Conflict and Discipline – Resolving conflict issues and embracing the opportunity disagreement can provide. Looking at the key components of discipline and following a set structure for implementation. 

The ‘DESC’ Model – Provision of a communication model that assists participants with structuring conversations around performance issues.

Performance Conversations – A practical activity following theoretical set-up that allows participants to practice and review the skills of effective performance communication.

Success = Value + People + Process

With innovation happening more than ever, the new agile project economy requires more and more people across organisations to manage projects successfully, leading to many of us quietly slipping into the role of the unofficial project manager!
The problem is very few people receive formal training on how to do it. Stakeholders, scope creep, limited training, and a lack of process all combine to raise the probability of project failure costing organisations time, money, and employee morale
Is it any wonder 65% of all projects fail* each year!
The good news is—unofficial project managers can build confidence to lead high-value projects and engage teams in a way that inspires them to volunteer their best efforts.

Outcomes
Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager™ combines best practices from agile and waterfall project management to equip learners with the mindset, skillset, and toolset to engage and inspire team members.
Success starts with the core agile principle of value—a project must deliver value to Noble! Once value is established, it is people who make projects successful through a consistent process.
Project management isn’t just about managing logistics and hoping the project team is ready to play to win. The skills of “informal authority” are more important than ever before, so team members are inspired to contribute to project success!

This course will help learners:
Build strong informal authority that inspires project teams to consistently volunteer their best efforts.
Utilise a consistent process to start and finish high-value projects on time and with quality.
Influence and engage others to define a clear project scope, including clear deliverables and risk strategies.
Model openness and agility to apply proactive change management and deliver high-value projects.
Project Management Framework
The Project Management Framework guides you through five distinct elements in the life of any project. Coupled with the foundational behaviours taught in the programme, this framework can help you deliver highly successful projects again and again.

Who Should Attend?
This programme is for anyone who finds themselves leading projects at work, regardless of whether or not their job title says, Project Manager!
It is NOT a deep dive into project management processes, nor is it a qualification based programme.
Whilst it would be helpful to either be involved in or to be leading a project, during the programme, this is clearly not essential. However, it is advisable that the participants have had some experience, whether as a project member or as the person who is leading the project (officially or not)!
Project Management Institute (PMI)

What important conversations are your team members avoiding?

Side-stepping difficult conversations can trap a team in unresolved problems, strained relationships, and missed chances for growth, which blocks progress and cultivates a lack of trust.
But many people avoid difficult conversations or handle them poorly because they’re afraid to address uncomfortable issues and feel unprepared to respond to the emotional reactions that inevitably arise.
Navigating Difficult Conversations: Turn Tension Into Progress takes a targeted approach to helping people to manage emotional tension and conduct conversations in a way that enables all parties to stay engaged in collaborative dialogue.
Participants will shift their mindset from fearing and avoiding difficult conversations to seeing them as the way to make progress on important issues. And they’ll develop the skills to build trust and respect in every relationship as they navigate sensitive topics.


Who Should Attend?
This programme is for anyone who finds the thought if having a challenging or difficult conversation, something to be very nervous of, even to the point of avoiding the issue.
We recommend that participants have first attended our Aspire programmes, Management Essentials and Performance Coaching, as they provide a strong foundation to the topic, which this session then builds upon.
In Navigating Difficult Conversations participants will discover how to balance Courage and Consideration throughout the conversation by:
Sharing their Purpose—the issue they need to make progress on—and Positive Intent—how they want the other person to benefit from the conversation
Responding to emotional reactions using the skills:
Pause, Don’t Panic
Observe, Don’t Judge
Ask, Don’t Assume
Outcomes
This module will help participants:
Create a strong foundation for difficult conversations by setting a clear and collaborative tone that balances their own and others’ needs.
Understand that emotional reactions are a natural, human response—and notice them as a signal that the conversation needs an adjustment to stay on track.
Practice a range of tactics to respond in the moment to help everyone stay engaged and make progress.

An online free Masterclass with Nicola Askham (The Data Governance Coach) and Alex Leigh on Building the Case for Data Governance.&nbsp;Making the case for Data Governance can be extremely hard. For many reasons, the most important of which we&#39;ll explain in this masterclass. Once we understand why it is so difficult, we can devise strategies to engage our senior leadership in a way that locks in their success with managing data as an asset. Join Alex and Nicola for this free masterclass as they explore how to build a successful Data Governance business case.

An online free Masterclass with Nicola Askham (The Data Governance Coach) and Rob Saundby on Enterprise AI-Ready Data. 
As AI becomes increasingly ubiquitous in large organisations, data leaders must demonstrate that corporate data is fit for AI initiatives. But there are important differences between the traditional view of "high-quality data" and the requirement for machine-readable data for ML models, including LLMs and AI Agents. This presentation explores some of these differences and how they may be overcome.

What is Enterprise AI-ready data?

Master plant tinctures are sacred, natural extracts derived from powerful Amazonian plants, each carrying unique healing properties. 

Used traditionally in shamanic practices, these tinctures provide a gentle, yet profound way to heal, release emotional blockages, and restore physical vitality. 

When you purchase these tinctures, you're contributing to the preservation of indigenous traditions as the Medicine Woman who makes them donates 50% of the proceeds to the Shipibo community in Iquitos, the true guardians of these medicines. 

The medicine women who makes them, fasts for 2 days before preparing them to ensure there is no external energy influencing the tinctures. The tinctures are also buried with the plant they are made from for 2 weeks to help strengthen their essence. 

Instructions:
1. Dosage & Absorption
Empty Stomach for Optimal Absorption: Take your tincture on an empty stomach, ideally at least 30 minutes before eating or 2 hours after your last meal. This enhances absorption and allows the plant’s energy to work more directly.
Sublingual Method (Under the Tongue): Place the recommended number of drops directly under your tongue and hold them there for about 1-2 minutes before swallowing. This method allows the plant’s essence to enter your bloodstream more quickly and efficiently.
Swallowing & Following with Water: If needed, you can follow with a sip of water or herbal tea, but avoid strong flavours that might interfere with the plant’s subtle energy.
2. Dietary Considerations
Avoid heavy, overly processed, or highly stimulating foods (e.g., caffeine, sugar, alcohol, or spicy foods) before and after taking the tincture, as they may interfere with the plant’s effects.
Simple, grounding meals such as lightly cooked vegetables, whole grains, and herbal teas, support a clearer connection to the plant.
If fasting or eating lightly while working with the tincture, listen to your body’s signals and adjust as needed.
3. Setting an Intention
Focused Approach: Working with one plant tincture for 1-2 weeks with a clear intention allows for a deeper relationship with the plant’s wisdom. Reflect on what you’re calling in whether it’s emotional healing, clarity, protection, or insight.
Intuitive Use: While structured use can be powerful, you can also work with the tincture as needed, trusting your intuition to guide you. It is safe for daily use if you feel called to it.
Journaling & Reflection: Keeping a small journal can help you track any insights, shifts, or emotions that arise during your work with the plant.
4. Adapting the Experience to You
There’s no rigid rule - some people benefit from structured, intentional work, while others find a more fluid, intuitive approach works best.
Pay attention to how your body, emotions, and energy respond. If you feel resistance or discomfort, pause and reflect on what the plant might be showing you.
Trust your own process and know that the relationship with plant medicine is deeply personal.
By approaching master plant tinctures with respect, presence, and openness, you can allow their wisdom to guide you in a way that best serves your journey. 🌿✨
