The Managing the Manager Curriculum Breakdown course offers a unique perspective on leadership by focusing on the oversight, development, and support of managers within an organisation. As businesses grow, managing people who manage others becomes essential to maintaining consistency, productivity, and alignment with strategic objectives. This course begins by introducing the concept of managing managers and identifying the core competencies needed to lead through others successfully.

One of the key aspects of the course is understanding how to choose the right manager for a team, considering not just skills but cultural fit and leadership potential. Learners will explore how work culture can be shaped and maintained through effective managerial influence, and how to ensure managers are meeting expectations from both above and below in the organisational structure. The course dives into managing organisational change and new transformations, offering strategies to guide managers through evolving business landscapes with clarity and confidence.

Additional modules focus on managing teams through managers, the factors that influence managerial performance, and how to support diverse team structures. The course also highlights the pitfalls of micromanagement and provides methods for empowering managers while still maintaining oversight. Finally, learners will understand how to balance short-term operational goals with long-term strategic planning through effective management practices. By the end of the course, participants will have the insights needed to lead managers with purpose and drive performance across all levels.
