Course description

A business or organisation is only as strong as its people. Managers play an important part in a business’ success, so it’s imperative that they have all the skills and tools they need in order to be effective managers. Part of a manager’s role is to support their team, understand their challenges and help them thrive. This is a lot easier when they have an understanding of themselves.

Our 45-minute online course helps the learner do just that. It explores two key themes – growth mindset and emotional intelligence – to provide those personal insights which will help positively shape their managerial style.

This course covers the following topics:

  • Growth mindset and what it is
  • Emotional intelligence and its benefits
  • Understanding your own emotional intelligence

This course will help you develop expert managers in your organisation.

  • Take the course

    This online course consists of a series of pages in which an instructor will talk learners through the lesson material. Pages may include supporting pictures, graphs, animation or extra sounds to help with the learning where appropriate. Some lessons will include challenges/quizzes to help learners stay engaged and interested in the material. Lessons can be taken in any order and each lesson may be paused and resumed at any stage.

    The course is self-paced so learners decide how fast or slow the training goes. There is no deadline for completion but some of our courses have a test at the end to check that learners have understood the material. If the course has a test at the end then learners are required to achieve a 75% pass mark to successfully complete the course. Once learners have passed the test they are awarded a certificate, which can either be downloaded digitally or sent as a physical copy if this option was chosen when purchasing the course.
