Course Overview

The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through managing negative emotions. A process for the people management and development discipline that managers quietly work around has already failed. Where the wider people management and development agenda is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to managing negative emotions in an order their organisation can absorb. Ambition around this area of people management and development outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The programme converts the people management and development discipline from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. It suits anyone whose decisions touch managing negative emotions, in large organisations and small ones alike. Every module pairs a short input on the people management and development capability with structured practice on the participant's own material. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this aspect of people management and development survives a hostile question.
