Your New Manager Development Program
Companies often promote individual contributors into management roles without adequate training either because of business disruption or not having the time to coordinate a “new manager training”. This is where we step in. We’ve created the perfect program for your organization and leaders so you don’t have to. Team Leadership, the second course in Birkman’s Rise To Lead coaching program, is designed for new, current, or aspiring managers to lead teams effectively.

Q: Do I have to be Birkman Certified to use the Team Leadership program?
A: Team Leadership, the second course of Rise To Lead, does not require Birkman Signature Certification or traditional Birkman training. A comprehensive facilitator guide is included in the workshop for ease of implementation, which includes all of the information and steps needed for anyone from an HR professional to a team leader to run this program successfully. For best results and maximum comfort with the materials, if you are hosting the program, we recommend the facilitator guide be reviewed in full prior to the session.
Q: My managers at my organization do not have a full day to allocate to do this program. Can we still do it?
A: Yes! This program has eight modules, each 2 hours long. Team Leadership can be performed in two full days or in multi-sessions. Because this program is divided into eight distinct modules, facilitators can choose to divide these sections in a way that best aligns with their schedules, such as two four-hour sessions or even one module at a time over the course of eight weeks.
Q: How is this program different than other Birkman offerings?
A: Distinct from other Birkman report offerings, this program is a solution-first workshop aimed at developing first-time managers. Therefore, this program intentionally leverages relevant Birkman reports to achieve this specific goal. In this workshop, the Birkman information is used as a tool to guide each manager as they move through their journey of developing the skills needed to successfully lead a team.
Q: I cannot host this program. Where can I send my employees to participate in the program?
A: We understand that some companies are smaller than others or may not have the resources to host their own program. That’s okay! We offer on-site opportunities. Check to see when the next available is at https://birkman.com/advanced-training-schedule/.
