MANAGEMENT FOR NEW MANAGERS COURSE OVERVIEW Being a manager requires a whole new set of skills that can be very daunting to the recently appointed manager. Suddenly you are required to perform a completely new and different role as well as to take responsibility for the performance of others. Your success is no longer dependent upon tasks completed by you but by the performance of your team. Without the skills to manage well, your own performance is in jeopardy. On the other hand, a skilled manager can double the productivity of a team and significantly impact the performance of a business unit or company.
