【How do your subordinates really feel about your communications with them? A learning experience to update your skills for effective communication with your staff】

 

This training covers an essential foundation for communicating more effectively with your subordinates through 1-on-1s. Tailored for managers working in Japanese companies in Singapore, learn the effective ways of communicating off- and online better with your team members.

 

With remote work becoming the business norm nowadays, managers have been struggling to engage with subordinates and teams via the increasing volume of virtual communication. Managers especially are facing the challenges of promoting the growth of their employees and nurturing their sense of belonging in teams and organizations. These have become exceptionally difficult for managers with the limited number of face-to-face, in-person, and onsite meetings and interactions to communicate as effectively as before. In short, the current situation urges managers to update their communication skills with subordinates under remote and hybrid work conditions.

 

In addition, Japanese companies outside of Japan often have plans to delegate more leadership roles to local staff. This delegation requires a local managers’ mindset change from a player to a manager, requiring an even greater awareness of their crucial roles in developing others. 

 

Mindset change happens when a person deeply feels its necessity, and only a palm-sweating experience can trigger it. In this course, participants will undergo a Simulation-based Training (SBT) that offers a direct- and quasi-real experience of a 1-on-1 meeting with a mock subordinate. Participants will receive a realistic reaction from the mock subordinate, which stimulates a deeper reflection on their current communication habits and encourage them to polish their communication skills.  

 

This program is a first step for developing managers and leaders, and it is a customized design for the latest hybrid work conditions in order to ride the wave of the new normal.

 

 

Training Goal

To experience and understand the basis of people management – effective communication between subordinates and superiors – from both perspectives.
To learn how to clarify and rectify current issues in your own communication methods.
