Course Description

Take your people management skills to the next level


No organisation can thrive unless its individuals are thriving too. On this four-week course from the University of Adelaide, you’ll learn how to draw connections between individual, team, and organisational performance, and unlock tangible strategies for optimising all three.


From SMART goals and coaching techniques to methods for measuring success, you’ll gain the tools you need to create a culture of high performance.


Explore the role of goal setting as a performance management strategy


Setting goals and expectations is a crucial part of people management. But only goals that are clearly defined and achievable will be conducive to team performance.


You’ll learn how to apply the SMART framework to devise, set, and evaluate goals for your team.


Boost your soft skills by learning how to provide constructive feedback and coaching


Providing constructive feedback and coaching helps to ensure goals are met.


You’ll master effective techniques for rewarding achievement and sensitively addressing issues in your team’s performance.


Discover evidence-based methods for monitoring and improving performance


In the final week of the course, you’ll reflect on how team performance can be measured, monitored, and uplifted. Focusing on evidence-based evaluation methods, you’ll learn how to identify areas for improvement, while celebrating your employees’ successes.


By the end of the course, you’ll have the skills and strategies you need to lead a confident, motivated, and high-performing team.


This course is designed for new and emerging managers or team leaders working in any industry. It may also interest more experienced managers looking to upskill or update their approach to management.
