MASTER OF MONDAYS
Where first-time people managers gain confidence and clarity. Have you ever had these thoughts as a new manager?
“Next time my team member does [poor behaviour], I’ll say something”
“How can I go from being mates with my team members, to being their boss?”
“I feel scattered and unprepared in every 1:1 meeting”
“How on earth can I deal with people management along with my existing workload?”
We get it.
Stepping into a new leadership role can feel like a big leap. You were part of a team, and now suddenly you’re managing people, juggling expectations and trying to figure out how to gain respect as someone in charge.
But what if, you stepped out of your workplace for half a day and were coached by highly experienced leadership experts?
You sit alongside an intimate group of other managers who are all new to leading people, just like you.
You learn simple yet effective frameworks to make people management seamless and stress-free.
Yes, there are countless books, podcasts and courses on leadership out there. These can be information overload, and let’s be honest – who has time to read about generic leadership theory and actually apply it?
A few years ago, Mon felt like a passive, stressed and inconsiderate leader. She missed important conversations and put off giving feedback because it was uncomfortable (for everyone involved!).
She ran a HR Consulting business with a small team and was a people expert, but putting the advice into practice was somehow too hard.
In her family business – a hospitality venue with 85 employees – Mon always felt like there was too many moving parts, and the people management side was chaotic and too reactive. She only dealt with team issues when they arose, which was too late!
After 12 years in Human Resources and business ownership, working alongside hundreds of emerging leaders, Mon started to recognise the people management frameworks and lessons that *actually* worked; resulting in a happy team who wants to stick around.
INTRODUCING… MASTER OF MONDAYS: LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP FOR FIRST-TIME MANAGERS
Master of Mondays is the handpicked highlights of Mon and Eve’s (12+ years) experience in HR and Leadership, distilled into a practical 5 hour in-person workshop.
We share the exact frameworks, templates and scripts that every new manager needs in order to lead with clarity and confidence.
