Body language for managers - important soft skills for team leaders
In order to motivate employees, managers not only need know-how and experience, but above all the power of persuasion. The targeted use of gestures, facial expressions and rhetoric plays a central role in this. In this Haufe Akademie training , participants learn how leaders can use their body language in business, marketing or with management to achieve goals or get people moving.
Communicating important topics in a targeted manner and motivating employees as a manager
New managers in particular are happy about their new position and more responsibility in the company. However, their previous demeanor often does not yet "fit" the new role. An important task is therefore to first realize what this new career goal requires of a leader. From the knowledge of the requirements, action concepts and methods can then be developed that lead to the optimization of rhetorical and communicative skills. These are supplemented by the improvement of body language and posture. All this awaits you on two seminar days packed with practical knowledge and useful tips.
