Management and Supervisory Programmes

Building effective management and supervisory skills that can help you and your organization succeed even in challenging economic times is very important. CTS offers management skills seminars to help you develop and refine the skills you need to manage people more effectively—and be ready for unexpected change.

Organizational Analysis and Development Programmes

Communications and Customer Service Programmes

Organizational analysis focuses on the structure and design of the organization and how the organization's systems, capacity and functionality influence outputs. Additional internal and external factors are also accounted for in assessing how to improve efficiency. Undertaking an organizational analysis is helpful in assessing an organization's current well-being and capacity, and deciding on a course of action to improve the organization's long-term sustainability. A restructuring of an Organization may become necessary when either external or internal forces have created a problem or opportunity for improvement in efficiency and effectiveness.

Effective communication occurs when a desired effect is the result of intentional or unintentional information sharing, which is interpreted between multiple entities and acted on in a desired way.

In today’s organization communication plays a vital role in keeping the organization together. It has been found that managers and supervisors spend as much as 80% of their working days engaged in some form of communication, speaking, listening to others, writing to and influencing others. The whole process of communication must be considered an area which is crucial to an organizations success and in which the individual plays a central role.

Increasing demands for public accountability ensures this course, which addresses ethics and accountability issues from a government prespective, will be highly relevant to the modern manager.

Fundamentals of Negotiations

Everyone actually negotiates informally all the time without even being aware of it. We negotiate with family, friends, co-workers and even with our bosses on many common issues or things without realizing it. We only realise we are negotiating when it is important and has some lasting impact. Formal negotiation is a skill that can be learned through experience and practice. People who negotiate more tend to be better skilled at it than people who have not participated in many formal negotiations. Thus, experienced people are more likely to know what to say, when to say it, when to make concessions, when not to, what to concede, what not to, and, in general manipulating the situation to their own advantage. For this reason, negotiation tends to favor the experienced party. This course will help participants develop their negotiation skills in managing formal negotiations.

Managing Conflict
