Advance Notice - Essential Management Skills Course
PITCHCARE are pleased to confirm that later this year we will again be offering our Essential Management Skills Course for Head Groundsmen, Head Greenkeepers and their Deputies.
The course is held on two days during the autumn/winter. Three months separate these days, so delegates have the opportunity to implement their learning from Day One and bring case studies back to the group to be discussed and examined on Day Two.
The course is led by Frank Newberry. Frank has over 20 years’ experience as a trainer and careers counsellor within the groundcare industry, and well understands the particular challenges faced by those in management and supervisory roles.
Topics covered include: • Personal Work Planning, Objectives and Priorities • Leadership and Delegation, Managing Stress
• Leading the Work Team and the Power of Personal Example
• Performance Management • Communication Skills • Dealing with Confrontational Situations • Negotiating in the Workplace • Writing at Work
... and much more besides!
Previous delegates have also commented on the benefit of sharing management challenges with their peers - it’s good to know you are not alone!
To register your interest in the 2010/11 course and receive further information, just e-mail Chris Johnson at
