Blanchard Management Essentials®
Equip New Managers with Crucial Skills for Success
When managers run into trouble, the costs are high: high turnover, low morale, low productivity, and more. Often, these performance challenges occur because they lack the basic management skills necessary for success. That's why we created Blanchard Management Essentials®: a transformational leadership training program for new managers and those who need to hone the essential skills needed to build relationships. Maintain a positive attitude towards team members, inspire engagement, and increase productivity.

Provide Management Training to Your Emerging Leaders
Blanchard Management Essentials® is based on key concepts from the bestselling business book The New One Minute Manager®. It's perfect for training new managers or promoting veterans, giving your employees the tools and training they need to become accomplished leaders. The program covers the essence of management training: the right thinking, core conversations, and communication skills needed to build positive relationships and keep employees productive.
The course introduces the four core dialogue models, a highly effective framework for understanding the communication fundamentals needed to manage people and performance.
Delivery Options to Suit Your Needs
We can deliver Blanchard Management Essentials® face-to-face, as a virtual version as part of a learning journey, or as a self-guided or moderated online version for administrators to managers, and you can learn this approach anytime, anywhere.
To ensure that your managers can learn the methodology wherever they are and whenever they have the time, SLII® can also be a component of a learning journey or taught in a self-directed online or moderated online version.
