The success of a team within a company is often directly linked to the ability of a manager to lead and manage the team effectively.

In this course you will gain an understanding of the basic fundamentals of becoming an effective manager for your team.
Before a law student is able to begin practicing law, the student must endure years of intense studying and be familiar with many different legal precedents in order to understand how the law works. A surgeon must attend medical school for several years and have an extensive knowledge of the human body before they can begin operating on patients. Similarly, a manager must have a thorough understanding of team dynamics and the principles that make the difference between success and failure before they can effectively manage a group of people.
