Director-Level Skills: The Effective Senior Manager

If you're an experienced manager, already practicing effective management but not yet accountable for an entire organization, this training is designed for you. The transition to leading other managers—often referred to as the “manager of managers” level—is rarely clearly defined. We’ll help you bridge that gap and begin developing the skills required at the executive level.

In this training, you’ll gain a clear understanding of how your current role differs from managing individual contributors. You'll learn what the organization expects from you, how to set strategic goals, define measurable outcomes, and assess your performance accordingly.

We’ll teach you how to use tools like the nine-box matrix for talent evaluation, how to design and implement a communications plan tailored to your role, and the communication rhythms necessary to lead effectively at scale. You’ll also learn how to conduct a Session C, lead organizational restructuring efforts, and understand the strategic value of internal relationships.

You’ll leave with a clearer picture of your role within the broader organization and how to excel at the director level and beyond!
