Becoming a Manager - Coaching Program
MNGT 50415A
This workshop is for MBA students with or without management experience. The workshop focuses on fundamental notions of mastering and taking ownership of the manager profession. Students will learn to become more conscious of their own management practices, styles, beliefs, and management values . Awareness will be built in class with every-day actions through self-assessment and reflection on students' behaviours. Managing in a post-pandemic world requires managers to revise their conception of work to be more human centred, to manage with more empathy for employees, and to revisit notions of control, delegation, and authority. Students can receive tailored coaching that is geared toward mastering and taking ownership of the manager profession and that goes beyond what can be achieved in the classroom.
