Team Leader Training Practical skills for new & first-line managers
TEAM LEADER TRAINING
Turn your best doers into your best team leaders
Most new team leaders are promoted for being great at their job — then handed a team with no real training on how to lead one. That's when small problems become big ones: missed deadlines, avoided conversations, disengaged staff and stressed-out managers.
Barton Training's team leader programmes give new and first-line managers the practical toolkit they need — communication, delegation, feedback, performance and motivation — delivered in plain English, in Newport, South Wales and across the UK. Programmes can be delivered as accredited ILM qualifications or as bespoke in-house training.

Better Conversations
Feedback, expectations and difficult conversations handled early — not left to fester.
