Management Training

Beacons management training and management development programmes offer practical training to develop new skills or refresh knowledge. Whether it's short management training modules or full-scale management development programmes, you'll find solutions to your organisation's management training needs below.

If you are designing a management development programme, why not measure your managers' current performance and identify their learning needs, before designing any training? Take a look at our 360 Feedback and Development Centre pages for a valuable first step in the management development process.

Customised management training courses

Beacons provide customised, in-company, short management training courses in :

• Time Management
• Problem Solving in Groups
• Performance Appraisal Skills
• Coaching Skills
• Project Management
• Influencing Skills
• Interviewing Skills
• Assertiveness

"Customised" means using our experience of what works well and working with you to develop training courses and modules that meet your needs exactly.

These are typically one day courses. However, they can all be compressed, or extended if the amount of content and your needs require. Courses have minimum of 4 participants, but usually 7-10, a good number in terms of group dynamics, shared learning and also value for money! Larger numbers can of course be catered for.

Our management courses can be delivered at your offices or off-site, at a venue specified by you, or at one of our recommended venues. Let us help you to develop your management development plans. Contact us and we'll create a tailored programme including all the management skills you need.

2-3 Day Management Training Courses

For longer management training programmes, we offer our Leadership in Action and High Potential programmes. These longer residential programmes usefully extend the impact, duration and learning from our work together.

360 Degree Feedback

We are market leaders in 360 feedback which we offer as either a "stand-alone" service or incorporated into a management programme.

Senior Managers

For more senior managers, we provide appropriate and focused versions of any of the above, plus one-to-one coaching.

Why Beacons?

Why Beacons when there are hundreds of other providers/consultants? Some straightforward course member feedback!

• "Excellent customised programme meeting individual needs. Added value - not 'off the shelf'. Beacons style - highly effective, simple techniques clearly explained."
• BCLSC
• "Effective use of complicated theories made simple - Beacons demystify management jargon/theory and translate it into practical management tools. The key is Beacons keep it simple and lots of interaction (activist learning style) which works very well."
• BCLSC
• "Thoroughly refreshing to have a trainer who doesn't use 'strap lines' or 'industry phrases' to explain things. Peter explained things clearly and concisely on a topic he is obviously very knowledgeable about - thank you!"
• Pink Roccade
• "I learnt many new skills and improved on even more skills which I already had. It helped me to see people in different ways, and ensured that I could diffuse situations without conflict."
