Practical Leadership Strategies for Women Managers

A hands on, tools focused course for women managers who need immediate, applicable techniques for running teams, projects, and difficult conversations. Rather than theory heavy frameworks, sessions centre on structured exercises, role plays, and templates participants can use back at their desks the following week. The course draws directly on the day to day realities of managing mixed teams across African offices and remote sites.

Course objectives

  • Run productive team meetings and one on one sessions consistently
  • Handle underperformance and conflict conversations with clarity and fairness
  • Prioritise competing demands using practical time and workload tools
  • Give feedback that changes behaviour without damaging relationships
  • Set and track team goals aligned to broader business objectives

Who should attend

  • First line and middle managers responsible for daily team performance
  • Project managers and coordinators leading cross functional teams
  • Supervisors in operations, retail, healthcare, and technical environments
  • Women transitioning from individual contributor to people management
