Specifically designed for food, fibre, tourism, and hospitality businesses, WaiHost Supervising and Communication with Confidence – for Supervisors provides a unique opportunity to enhance leadership skills and improve discussion within the workplace.

Navigating the transition from team member to Team Leader or Supervisor can be challenging. Adjusting to the new dynamics requires time, effort, and the right skills for the new leader and their team. Inexperienced leaders often face hurdles such as effective delegation, leading to overwhelming staff management tasks while their projects fall behind.

WaiHost Supervising and Communication with Confidence – for Supervisors workshop is designed to empower new leaders, equipping them with the essential skills to excel in their roles. Participants will master the art of delegation, enhance their goal-setting and expectation-management techniques, and develop strong leadership abilities. Additionally, the course covers crucial aspects of leadership, such as providing effective feedback.

Performance review conversations can be particularly challenging, especially when addressing less-than-stellar performance. Even more daunting are the personal and delicate conversations leaders sometimes need to have, such as addressing a sensitive issue with a team member. Finding the right words can be extremely difficult and mentally taxing from the moment the need arises until the conversation is finally out of the way.
