How to Train New Leaders

Only that which is well prepared and written down (formalized), and therefore accessible for broadcasting to a wide range of people in a single information context, can be scaled. And this can only be done with those managers who are professionally trained.

This way you can win, as we see in the example of the victory in the Civil War, where officers strategically competently led the peasants and workers ( an accessible fact is that a significant part of the officer corps of the tsarist army and navy went over to the side of the Red Army ). You can also achieve heights in business.

To successfully manage cross-functional teams, it is important for managers to have not only leadership qualities, but also developed management competencies. Modern effective managers must have the skills of strategic thinking, conducting operational activities, budgeting. They must understand business processes and their connections, time management, formulating and setting goals, control systems, and also be able to competently allocate resources and motivate employees.

Continuous training and development of managers plays an important role in the development of management skills. Many companies invest in programs to improve the skills of their managers, sending them to trainings, seminars and business schools. This helps them improve their competencies and keep up with changing market demands.

It is also interesting to note that the role of lower and middle managers is especially important in complex, volatile markets. They are the ones closest to operational activities and are the first to react to changes, which allows companies to adapt to new conditions faster. Therefore, investments in management development become the key to business flexibility and competitiveness.

The system of training junior managers should not be as long-term as in MBA. Short-term formats work better - a month or two at most. During this time, young managers need to be given skills and form a common understanding. To do this, you need to create benchmarks - some "coordinate systems".

2. With the help of a mentor

The most effective training option, in my opinion, is a management ameriplan email list school within a corporation or company under the guidance of a mentor. These can be either personal meetings or mini-courses. It is important for a person who is just becoming a manager to start with specific instructions: setting tasks, monitoring and tracking them. A competent mentor can provide such an approach.

At the same time, it is important for the mentors themselves to keep themselves in shape. If the mentor himself is cut off from practice, then in the best case scenario, after 3-5 years, he moves to the club of theorists.

3. Systematically

Knowledge must be concentrated/focused, clearly structured and systematized. Only consistent transmission of targeted focused knowledge in key blocks will give results (and this is the strong point of theorists).
