Supervision and People Management - 2 Day Course - Sydney | Odyssey Training | Monday, 26. August 2019

Supervision requires balancing different views and adapting your management style to suit the situation. This course will help you get the balance right.
Supervision, or management, is the art of achieving outcomes through other people, and to do that you need first rate leadership skills. You can supervise or manage business functions, but you have to lead people. The role of the supervisor or first level manager is to do both. You are the link between senior or executive management and line staff, and what you do each and every day has an impact on the bottom line.
