About the Class

Selecting people for the management function is becoming increasingly difficult and organizations are using various tools, trainings and techniques to map the skill and competency gap to actual requirements. Also, most engineers and sales people, when made managers, are unable to make the transition successfully. This is mostly because the required mindset shift takes too long to happen for most managers and very soon issues like business management, time management, people management and stress management enter the biosphere of just promoted managers. This leads to stress and conflict in the organization, thereby adding negativity in entire workspace. Many more never get promoted, because of perceived lack of skill, competence or attitude. In addition, the business environment is changing rapidly and the younger workforce is proving increasingly difficult to motivate, inspire and manage. Hence, a total shift in thinking around the role of managers (project managers or leads) is required to be successful.

This session is part of a series of lectures that Rajesh, a noted management consultant would be conducting to appraise would be and current managers on required skill and competence in current times. This session is part of Manager 2.0 series which Rajesh has conducted at various organizations and workshops and have been very well received. Rajesh has agreed to do this session free of cost on WiZiQ, in order to reach out to a wider audience. Here is hoping that you will make the most of this session.

Rajesh is an excellent trainer. I have been fortunate to be a part of the introductory lecture he delivered on Manager 2.0 at Agile Introductory event in Chandigarh. His presentation is excellent and message clear. I am sure this is going to be one heck of a session.
