Effective management comes from proper training

Every time we come across poor quality product or service the management is blamed for it; well we know it isn’t easy to manage processes and people. While it is said that you learn from your mistakes, it is better more often than not that we avoid making mistakes in the first place, hence the managers and leaders can always use a little guidance on effective management.

It’s a highly competitive world, where to succeed you have to offer superior quality of products and services. This is the reason why Training for management is so much in demand. People are changing, trends are changing, work culture is changing; we are growing at a rapid pace and to keep up with the change, control and manage, the leader has to be dynamic and positive.

Let us first check out some of the common mistakes that are committed while leading or managing a team and a project:
No Time for Your Team- It is quite understandable that as a manager you would have your hands full almost at all times, however making a little time for your team is very important. Due to the lack of your adequate support and guidance your team would lose the objective.
Being over friendly- There’s a difference between being approachable and being too friendly. Some members of your team may take advantage of you being too friendly with them, which would result in things slipping out of your control.
Fallacies around motivation- Please understand that it is not just the monetary gain that motivates every one of your team members. Failing to understand what motivates your team and thus failing to motivate them effectively could be quite devastating.
Avoid delegation- Delegation is easy and effortless; however it is not easy to trust someone to do the job correctly. But delegation is important, failing which you would never be able to focus at a macro level that most of the managers or leaders are responsible for. And you would also fail to develop your team members in order to take the pressure off you and prepare them for the next level.
Not providing timely feedback- Failing to provide feedback is a common mistake, which leads to graver problems. Most of the leaders and managers fail to provide feedback on a timely basis. If you do not point out what is wrong at the right time, your team would continue to do the same mistake and your process/business would end up suffering.


I am sure we all agree to these mistakes that are more often than not made by the managers and leaders. These are common mistakes, no one does this deliberately, however in the mad rush of things, you tend to overlook and make these mistakes. To get a better insight on what exactly is a leaders role and how to approach the responsibilities effectively, attending a training for management is much needed.
