Managing Professional Work Teams
About this course
We often think that managing people looks like a charismatic and courageous person effective enough to be in front pointing out to everyone the direction the group should take, while others follow behind. However, in today’s world (where the difference between supervisors and employees is smaller than ever), leaders are just as often teammates and collaborators as they are supervisors and managers who can hire and fire their team at will. This course is an introduction for how managers can construct and supervise individuals who work as a team to get their work done quickly and effectively – where all individuals add unique value and skill. Taught by an internationally recognized expert in leadership and team development, this course is helpful to anyone interested in the basics of supervising other humans in work and community settings. If you already consider yourself more advanced, this short course might help to remind you of basic strategies and concepts you may have gotten away from. Each short video and reading is designed to be practical, clear, and backed by the latest research in management and leadership development.
