Redwood Shores, CA – LSA Global, the business consulting and training firm that helps fast growth life science, technology, and service companies by powerfully aligning their culture and talent with strategy, today announced results for a program focused on building high tech people manager skills for a technology leader that needed their people managers to lead and build high performance teams.
The management development program results were:
This fast growing technology leader knew that technical expertise was not enough to build and lead high performing teams to meet aggressive growth targets. They needed their team leads to augment their technical acumen with strong people management skills to inspire, retain, and drive high-performing teams. Based upon new manager training data, more than 65% of their engineers and technology experts were struggling when transitioning into managerial roles because the skills required to lead people differ fundamentally from those needed to lead code, systems, or processes.
The highly interactive and customized workshop focused on building the skills managers need to inspire and lead their direct reports. The management fundamentals program employed several practical learning strategies:
Structured Learning Programs
Each interactive session was designed for busy technical professionals who needed to develop as leaders.
360-Degree Feedback
Each leader solicited 360-degree feedback from peers, direct reports, and executives to identify blind spots and growth opportunities.
Mentorship Networks
Each participant was matched with an experienced leader to gain insight into effective people management.
Action Learning Projects
Learning cohorts used action learning leadership development projects to learn and move important work forward.
Reflection and Iteration
Individual, cohort, and group reflection was purposefully used to discuss key leadership challenges, continuously refine leadership approaches, and to help accelerate learning in the flow of work.
This particular group of managers appreciated the value of creating a clear team charter and getting to know how to set their direct reports up for success.
