Course Description

Develop your managerial skills and promote a positive team culture
Research has shown that promoting a positive team culture can help to boost employee motivation and drive your organisation’s success. Teams that feel energised and empowered are more resilient and better able to cope with challenges.
On this four-week course from the University of Adelaide, you’ll learn why motivation is so crucial for successful management, and gain the skills you need to successfully empower and energise your employees.
Explore the benefits of a strong team culture
Creating a strong team culture is beneficial for both your employees and your organisation. It can help arm your team with the confidence and motivation to deal with obstacles quickly, minimising disruption to the business.
You’ll discover the crucial role that managers and team leaders play in setting the tone for their team’s culture.
Investigate motivation strategies for energising and empowering your team
Once you’ve seen what it means to energise and empower employees, and understood the benefits of a positive team culture, you can begin mastering motivation strategies.
Your course leader will guide you through the principles of motivation theory, showing how it applies to employee motivation.
Identify and celebrate your employees’ talents to boost team performance
To effectively empower your employees, you’ll need a clear sense of what their strengths and talents are. In the second half of the course, you’ll apply techniques for identifying strengths and potential weaknesses. You’ll see how matching talents to tasks can help to optimise your team’s performance.
By the end of the four weeks, you’ll understand the benefits of employee motivation for individuals and organisations, and have the tools you need to harness your own team’s potential.
This course is designed for new and emerging managers or team leaders working in any industry. It may also interest more experienced managers looking to upskill or update their approach to management.
Please note, Chris is not able to join the discussions or respond to individual comments, however, the course encourages a strong learning community. The learning is focused around debate and discussion - supporting other learners, sharing your own experience and knowledge, and listening to new perspectives.
