Liderança e Gestão de Pessoas

Objetivos

Nowadays, our society is characterized by an unprecedented fast paced change, especially after the Covid-19 crisis. In this context, managing people and more specifically leading well informed and demanding individuals, is increasingly more complex, and therefore more challenging. This course aims to enrich experienced managers, by providing knowledge and moments of sharing, enabling them to better understand the challenges of team management and leadership. Furthermore, during the course, a self-discovery journey will be carried-out by all students. More than ever, in a society pressured by the constant search for efficiency and profits, maximization, people management surges as a pivotal lever. And as leadership is also based on motivation, preparation and knowledge in this dimension of management, it's imperative for those who are team managers to improve their soft skills. Inadequate people management can derail a well-structured project or organization. A leadership that does not provide, among other things, participation, accountability, motivation, innovation and a clear idea of the path to follow, can jeopardize an entire project or organization. Organizations by their increased complexity, require consultation and coordination, forcing us to acquire skills that go far beyond technical skills. Expectations, objectives, differences of interpretation among others, require knowledge and experience, so that, independently of the types of leadership and people management we use, the end result is aligned with everyone's objectives. Setting and achieving goals is a political / strategic activity requiring options / priorities, and soon in time, agreements and commitments. Only well trained and capable leadership, and adequate people management, will allow people to commit themselves and achieve a common project mission. Another purpose of this course is to promote understanding and learning, to recognize the context of interpersonal relationships, culture and human behaviours which improve our response in the decisions we make as individuals or team managers. Hence, enabling us to achieve better results, as managers and leaders. Thus, as a critical success factor, adequate and effective leadership, fosters positive contributions to ambitious end-results, particularly in demanding environments.
