People Management

Leaders often face the challenge of managing diverse teams, where misalignment and misunderstanding can lead to inefficiency and decreased morale.

The complexity of modern team dynamics can leave even the most experienced leaders grappling with issues like poor communication, lack of clear objectives, and inconsistent performance. Without a strong foundation in people management, these problems can escalate, resulting in disengaged employees, stalled projects, and a detrimental impact on organizational goals.

"People Management" is a tailored 2-day course that addresses these challenges by equipping leaders with the five core competencies of effective people management: Create, Connect, Control, Collaborate, and Catalyze. Through expert-led sessions and hands-on activities, leaders will learn to navigate the complexities of team dynamics, foster a culture of engagement and collaboration, and drive their teams towards achieving exceptional results.


“After taking 'The Dynamics of People Management' course, I feel more confident in my ability to lead my team. The exercises and insights into the 5Cs model have been particularly transformative for me.”

— Mark Anthony Osorio, CloudMarks Solutions, Inc.


This course offers a toolkit for enhancing team productivity, improving communication, and increasing overall job satisfaction, leading to a more harmonious and effective workplace. By mastering these five critical competencies, leaders can not only resolve current team challenges but also proactively shape their teams for future success.

The course is best for mid to senior level managers looking to sharpen their people management skills. Team Leaders aiming to foster a positive and productive team environment. HR Professionals seeking to support and train leadership in effective people management. Project Managers wanting to enhance team performance and collaboration. Organizational Development Specialists focused on improving company culture and employee engagement, or any leader who aspires to drive change, nurture talent, and lead with confidence and competence.

REVIEWS

 

Rose Maria M. Chua, VP for HR and Corporate Communications, ZUELLIG Pharma

We were elated that we had a more articulate and responsive Competency Model for the core functions of the organization as a result of our project with Lito. What started out as a Global Campaign using the Lominger Model, with Lito’s help we were able to localize the Competencies and created progressive levels of proficiency for each dimension. Now the other Zuellig locations in the Asia-Pacific Region want to replicate our achievement.

Jonathan Villanueva, Global Service Center Director, Emerson

Through Lito’s guidance, we were able to put together a Competency Model that served as the framework for our Talent Management programs. Specifically, we were able to identify the Key Talents within the organization, as well as those we should Keep in View based on their promise of competence.

Atty. Anna Karina A. Coronal, Department Manager, Administrative and General Services Department, National Food Authority

Having defined our Competency Framework in a previous project, our workshop with Lito clarified all that still wasn’t clear and did not convince us of Competency-Based HR. In fact, in light of the clarity, we were able to jumpstart our Succession Planning Program, identifying Key Positions and Critical Competencies which formed the basis for identifying Potential Successors. Without this workshop, we would not have a solid foundation for our project.

Agnes Padilla, Executive Director, Civil Service Commission

CSC was the first among the government agencies to adopt a Competency-Based approach to HR. It was Lito who convinced us that this was the better path for streamlined and integrated HR versus the traditional way we have been managing the function. Because of this project, we are thinking of making it a key requirement among HR across all agencies to ensure an empowered talent pool and effective organization.
