Build stronger managers on the factory floor.

Turn everyday management problems into practical capability.
Many manufacturing businesses promote technically strong employees into supervisory roles without giving them the tools to lead people effectively.
Weak accountability
Managers struggle to set clear expectations, delegate work and follow up consistently.
Communication gaps
Poor briefings, unclear instructions and weak shift handovers create avoidable operational problems.
People issues escalate
Absenteeism, conflict, misconduct and underperformance are not handled confidently or consistently.
What your managers will be able to do.
Participants practise the behaviours and tools they need to manage teams more confidently in a manufacturing environment.
Set clear expectations
Translate business and production objectives into clear team goals, responsibilities and standards.
Give useful feedback
Conduct more effective conversations about performance, behaviour, attendance and improvement.
Follow up performance
Use practical action plans, review conversations and documentation to improve accountability.
A six-week manager development programme.
The programme can be delivered at your workplace, at the DNB centre or through a blended format.
Not a generic leadership seminar.
We begin by understanding the managers, teams and operational issues involved. The examples, exercises and action plans are then adapted to your organisation.
- Pre-programme management diagnostic.
- Practical manufacturing-related scenarios.
- Participant workbook and manager tools.
- Individual workplace action plan.
- Post-programme progress review.
- Management feedback report.
Connect workplace learning to a recognised qualification pathway.
The corporate programme can introduce practical leadership and management capabilities that are also relevant to DNB’s ILM pathway.
Important qualification distinction
Participants in this corporate programme receive a DNB certificate of completion. Eligible participants may separately apply for the full Advanced Diploma in Leadership and Management, subject to the entry requirements, approved qualification process and assessment requirements.
