Leadership is playing an increasingly important role. The aim of the project is to create a common understanding of leadership at team leader level as a bracket function and in addition to the local freedom of individual plants.
In a modular program, first and foremost, role awareness is developed and strengthened in order to increase the urgency of investing time in leadership tasks and to build up the necessary skills. Fundamental attitudes as the basis for positive leadership work, diverse aspects of communication, the use of different leadership styles as well as change and the challenges associated with it are the focus of the development program. The participants are offered tools online and live, and trying out and adapting them is supported in accompanying steps. Application orientation receives maximum attention!
The program is also supported by intensive exchange and lively discussions among the team leaders as well as with the plant management and HR. The diverse challenges of the future require a strong and cohesive management team. The willingness to actively contribute to this can be clearly felt by all participants!
We look forward to partnering with TMD Friction leaders on this journey.
