Getting a step up on the corporate ladder can be easier said than done. Sure, you’re happy to do your time in the cubicle swamps, making the tea, slaving over work that could be done by a million other people. But you’re not content to stay at that level.
You’re capable of so much more.
Yep, you’ve got your eye on a coveted leadership role that allows you to advance from dogsbody to team leader to manager to…dare we say it…boss.
And why not? Honestly, the only thing between you and the top of the ladder is a climb. However, a Level 3 Diploma in Management can make that climb considerably more manageable. Here are all the great benefits…
Personal And Professional Development…
It’s one thing knowing you want to develop as a person and as a professional, but understanding how to do it is a little more problematic. A diploma in management will give you the skills needed to identify your goals on both levels. You’ll learn how to identify the areas that need development, create a plan to reach your goals, hit those targets, and keep your plan updated and relevant.
Nailing The Principals Of Business…
Let’s face it if you want to not only be a valued member of the team but lead the team, you really need to get to grips with the fundamentals of business. That includes how to navigate business marketing, understanding the nuances of financial management and business budgeting, and wrapping your head around marketing and sales.
A diploma in management will ensure you are fully prepared for all of this.
Learning Effective Team Leadership…
There’s more to being an effective team leader than simply being put in charge. It’s essential to know the different styles and models of leadership and have a clear understanding of your role and responsibilities as a team leader. You’ll also want to be well versed in effective decision making and the best ways to measure performance.
Speaking of which, a great team leader also needs to understand team performance. You will need to know how to allocate and assure the quality of work while effectively managing team communication.
It’s easier said than done!
People Management…
The effective management of people is another skill that doesn’t (usually) come naturally. Understanding the mechanics of a workforce isn’t easy. They aren’t simply there to service your whims and the needs of the business. Seeing them as people, treating them as equals, ensuring inclusion and diversity, taking time to develop your team dynamics, effectively training them and improving their skills, recognising and rewarding good performance… These things are the difference between a poor manager and a great leader. By the end of your management diploma, you’ll be well versed in all aspects of people management.
There Are Great Funding Opportunities…
One final reason to take advantage of the training and education of a management diploma is the funding opportunities available. These include:
19+ Advanced Learner Loan…
This course can be funded using the Advanced Learner Loan, meaning you would have nothing to pay back until you earn over £25,575 per year.
