from Past Participants

“Practical Solutions for Real-World Challenges in the Hospitality Industry”

 

I have completed similar courses with different providers in the past, but the Middle Management Movement program was delivered in a practical way that actually solves realistic challenges that I face every day as a Duty Manager. Michelle facilitated the program in a way that reminded me that the industry is forever changing and that we must innovate, adapt and continually find solutions as our obstacles evolve over time. 

~ Peter Hoang, Duty Manager, Revesby Workers Club

“Informative, interactive, and enjoyable" 

 

 

Middle Management Movement allowed me to gain further knowledge on what it means to be a leader, specifically in the relationships you build with staff. It taught me how to deal with specific groups of people in the workplace and what I should do in specific scenarios. The program was very informative and enjoyable at the same time, through how interactive it was and the way topics were presented. Michelle had an inclusive approach and we all felt welcome to share our opinions.

~ Ben Braun, North Bondi RSL

“I would 110% recommend the Middle Management Movement program”

 

I would 110% recommend the Middle Management Movement program. We got so much out of it - reassurance, an active listener, values work, amazing self help book, assessment on our individual selves, guidance, advice, just to mention a few. Keep doing you Michelle - you are someone I will never forget, and wherever I end up in life, I will always look back at your wisdom and support for guidance and as a role model.

What is it Costing You NOT developing Your Leadership Team?

  • Research shows that the cost of recruiting a new employee in Australia is $26,000.  How much have you spent in hiring for your Leadership team and they haven't worked out?
  • Lack of stability and continuity.  When middle managers change frequently it disrupts established workflows, processes and relationships.
  • Inconsistency with Direction.  Different middle managers may have varying leadership styles, priorities and strategies.  This can lead to confusion among frontline team members about the organisation's goals, expectations and priorities.

 

When you do the "Math" this can equal TENS of thousands of dollars each year in recruitment, loss of productivity and revenue.

Here's What the Modules Cover...

DISC BEHAVIOURIAL PROFILING ASSESSMENT

Completed prior to commencement of the program, the Individual DISC Behavioural Profiling Assessment is a foundational step before the program begins, requiring each participant to undergo a DISC assessment.

By delving into these distinct behavioural patterns, teams can foster more effective communication and motivation strategies tailored to individual preferences and tendencies. This tool not only strengthens interpersonal connections by boosting emotional intelligence but also sheds light on how specific behaviours impact team dynamics. When utilised within the team setting, the assessment promotes enhanced collaboration and synergy. Furthermore, the insights acquired help individuals become more self-aware of their triggers and stress responses, paving the way for improved stress management and fostering a culture of mutual support.

“Best course ever...”

 

Middle Management Movement gave me a really good insight into how my leadership differs from others in our team & also how others see me as a leader. I thought the DiSC analysis was pretty accurate. It reinforced that I am a good leader but also made me aware of other team members having different ways in how they approach work. Some are much more analytical which made me understand they need to be led in a different way. On a personal note, it made me more confident to believe in myself, my values & my approach to work. The program was fun, insightful, interesting, informative & very valuable. Probably the best course I have done professionally.

~ Lee Farlow, Duty Manager, North Bondi RSL

“Highly recommend...”

 

My team and I gained a lot of meaningful tools and tips from completing the Middle Management  Movement course.

The online portal and training resources helped keep us all on track and the weekly sessions with Michelle helped to reinforce our learning.

I would highly recommend this training for supervisors/duty managers as it shows the way to lead and inspire a team of direct reports.

 

~ Gary Leighton, CEO, Warilla Sports Club

“Authentic connection...”

 

We were fortunate to have some select leaders from our team participate in Michelle’s Middle Management Movement program. Michelle’s knowledge, dedication to service and leadership excellence, and ability to create a positive and engaging learning space resulted in an authentic connection with our team. We have since observed these team members putting their learnings into practice and I look forward to future opportunities to work with Michelle. Thank you again Michelle – it has been a pleasure.
