As a line manager at Empower, you'll be mentoring and communicating to your team clearly, solving problems with creativity, and delegating to direct reports. A mindset of continual learning, both for you and for your team, will be key. This learning pathway will support you in that journey. We've curated five core topics to explore over the coming six months through live virtual workshops and self-directed micro-learning.
The science is in: the myth that confidence is 'something you have or you don't,' is not, and has never, been true. Confidence is a skill, and like any skill it can be learnt. And whatever you're looking to become more confident in and more comfortable with — meetings, presentations, sharing ideas — small steps lead to big results. This learning pathway will support you in that journey. Where to begin, and what to prioritise, is your call, and in check-ins with your manager you’ll discuss progress and what you’ve been applying.
Teams thrive with a rich range of minds, backgrounds and modes of thinking. Understanding the harm that our built in biases can make to psychological safety in our teams, and actively mitigate them, is crucial to our collaborative success. That's what this pathway is all about; getting intentional with our curiosity, kindness and allyship in the day to day, and practically bringing each and every voice into our meetings and brainstorming sessions.
Appraisals are an amazing chance to celebrate achievements, identify areas of self-development, and chart next steps. But, whether you're an appraiser or an appraisee, it's crucial to brush up on some key soft-skills if you want to make the most of them. In this pathway, you'll find a hand-picked selection of workshops and resources to supercharge your next appraisal, from listening skills to giving and receiving feedback.
