Key Skills for NonAcademic Staff

The university environment can be very different and is changing - providing more courses for more students, responding to the needs of employers, the marketplace and regulators.

Demands on staff are increasing as people are required to learn new skills and take on new roles to support these developments.

By providing workshops you can support staff growth, development and flexibility.
This benefits individuals and organisations with specific skills development and can greatly boost morale.

As staff develop skills to improve their time management, communicate effectively, manage stress or cope with change you may find this boosts productivity and reduces absenteeism through sickness, burnout or stress related illnesses.

Courses of interest include :

• Confident Speaking at Meetings;
• Manage, Influence and Motivate;
• Time Management;
• Coping with Change;
• Managing Pressure Positively;
• Coaching Skills for Managers;
• Assertiveness Skills.

Do visit the Workshops page for a full list.

The content can be tailored to meet your particular training needs or to complement your existing programmes.

Performance Coaching

Your key staff sometimes need to adapt quickly, to stretch, to master new skills.
Maybe they are new to staff managment, to networking or influencing others.
Perhaps they have a new role that their research career to date hasn't developed.
Professional Coaching is one process that can give them the edge, to develop new skills, expand their comfort zone.

Through coaching, master communication skills, influencing and motivation.

Use behavioural styles analysis to understand effective team building, deliver feedback and achieve goals.
