Build Resilience Through Change

Change is everywhere, and the rate and pace of change seems to gather momentum with each passing year. Some people relish change and seem to bounce back effortlessly from each iteration. However, constant change has a way of wearing you down and chipping away at even the most steely veneer. Understanding change, stressors and resilience is important, as is developing a framework to identify signs of strain and how we can cope when things shift. This IML short course develops an understanding of change and resilience and provides an opportunity for participants to plan ways to tackle stress with a newfound resilience built on shared knowledge and skills. 

Build Teams to Perform

Leading and developing a team has evolved significantly over the past few years. Leaders and managers and are required to drive performance in a new landscape which extends across virtual and remote locations as well as physical offices and workplaces. People skills and connection are more important than ever. This popular short course is designed to enable leaders to adapt and learn new ways to engage, manage and develop their teams across a range and mix of contemporary workplaces.

Communication Essentials

Effective communication is the backbone of effective workplace relationships and improving these skills will help you in all elements of your role. Communication is essential for delegating work, building trust and developing a high performing team.  

In this popular IML short course, you’ll learn to develop vital workplace communication skills needed to establish and maintain successful relationships inside and outside the workplace. You’ll receive practical tips and techniques that allow you to communicate with clarity, overcome barriers, wield influence and confidently convey your message to different audiences. 

Critical Conversations at Work

Workplace conversations are essential to set direction, establish goals and expectations and to harness the individual and collective effort of people. Crucial conversations often explore issues that people would rather avoid, however they are essential to maintain open and honest workplace communication and to tackle workplace issues, that if left unexplored, can have a major impact on workplace relationships and productivity. This Short Course will assist you in understanding the importance of conducting these crucial conversations, and how to best prepare for them.

Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace

Emotions play such an important role in the workplace. In terms of building strong relationships, developing trust and communicating effectively, everything is made more difficult given the added layer of human emotions. Understanding Emotional Intelligence and building competency and capacity in how we deal with our own emotions and the feelings of those around us, is critical to success in your role. This IML short course develops a deeper understanding of the science of emotions and unpacks the six competencies that underpin EI. Using the results of the Genos Emotional Intelligence assessment, participants will embrace their own strengths and develop a plan for building personal EI for greater workplace effectiveness.

Lead People and Performance

Without a doubt, the most difficult role for a manager, and the one that many avoid, is managing poor performance in the workplace. Often, it's a complex web of factors but without some action, matters generally only get worse. Performance management is a hands-on process and requires a regular ongoing approach, not a traditional once or twice a year check in. This IML short course will assist in developing a consistent and disciplined approach to performance management that looks to celebrate positive achievements and deal quickly and effectively with poor performance before things get out of hand. 

Mate to Manager

One of the most difficult transitions in the workplace is the move from individual contributor to managing and leading your first team. Not only does your title change but your perspective on work needs to shift as you become responsible and accountable for the performance and behaviours of a group of people. You also take on the responsibility of upholding your organisation's values, standards and codes of conduct. The Mate to Manager short course will give you the knowledge and skills to move from being an accidental manager to an intentional leader. You will learn the responsibilities associated with being an intentional leader, build a positive team culture and how to manage team members who are also your friends.

Problem Solving and Decision Making

Despite the advancement of artificial intelligence and automation, the World Economic forum continues to flag the importance of critical thinking, problem solving and decision making as skills of the future.   This virtual short course will consider the role that creative and critical thought play in the problem-solving process and examines how great decisions are made based on the consideration given to information gathered through this process.   

Self Leadership: Develop Brand You

A “brand” is quite literally a recognisable mark that distinguishes a seller's good or service from those of other sellers. Big brands surround us and millions of dollars are spent by marketers each year promoting the benefits of products and services. But have you ever stopped to consider your own brand and how you might stand out from the crowd?

This IML short course looks at the components of a brand and asks you to consider what your brand is now, what you would like it to be and importantly, how to bridge that gap. The workshop also looks at networking as a means of promoting your brands and concludes with a focus on understanding resilience and wellbeing in an effort to protect your valuable brand 

Think on Your Feet

Learn the skills you need to visualise and organise your thoughts quickly, communicate effectively under pressure, convey your ideas clearly and think on your feet faster. This training course will teach you to employ strategies to stay cool under pressure and help you learn the techniques to structure communications which are suited to any situation, enabling you to articulate and deliver your message clearly and concisely.

Think on Your Feet® is an international course that has run in Australia for over 20 years. Its focus is to build skills, knowledge and confidence in participants wanting to enhance their ability to communicate key messages.

Time and Priority Management

We all feel like we need more time in our day. What you really need is to take control and focus your efforts on what matters most. Time management is essential for all roles and levels of responsibility.
