The challenge

New managers inherit a team but rarely get to build one.

  1. 01

    A new manager keeps doing the old job, and the team is left to organize itself.

  2. 02

    Team meetings become status updates, so real problems are discussed in the corridor afterwards.

  3. 03

    The manager avoids a difficult conversation with a strong performer and loses the rest of the team's respect.

FAQ

Ask a question →
Why invest in team building training for new managers?

Most new managers are promoted for technical strength and given little help building a team. Team building training for new managers gives them a structured way to set direction, agree on norms and build trust while the team is still forming its view of them.

Is this the same as new manager training?

No. Our new manager training covers the wider role. This team building program focuses on one task: shaping a team that works well together.

Can a manager bring their own team?

The core sessions are for managers. We can add a facilitated session with a manager's own team to apply the team building activities in practice, subject to agreement.

How long is the program?

Duration and format are agreed upon with you, based on how many managers are involved and when they started in role.

Who runs it?

Team Transformation's ICF and IMC certified coaches, who have worked with managers across MENA, Asia and Europe since 2015.
