The trainer is very knowledgeable and excellent in delivering the content of the course. I learned many interesting tips for application in design thinking because the trainer also helped me think out-of-the-box. The small group discussions were manageable, interesting and applicable to our current work processes. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and strongly recommend it to others.

“In my 7 years with this organization, I saw how the shipyard business has evolved in terms of our ways of working and communicating internally and with our customers. Gone were the days of top-down communications. In today’s context, possessing effective 2-way communication skills is a must. I manage a very diverse group of people in terms of age and experience. So, having an open and clear communication approach is essential in building a successful and productive team. This course (Professional Diploma in Leadership and People Management (LPM)) has definitely prepared me to take on a larger role. I have learned how to listen more and to make better business decisions by taking a holistic view from the company’s perspective and at the same time putting myself in the shoes of the people involved.”

We are encouraged that the workshop has helped our managers and team leaders discover innovative ways to manage teams.

“The workshops have honed my managerial skills. To lead my team to deliver quality service, I am now more conscious of being sensitive to my staff, and being inclusive by sharing management issues and constraints openly with them.

I have also learned to be more understanding and intentional in applying “different strokes for different folks” to achieve win-win outcomes. I learned to be more empathetic towards challenges faced by my colleagues and is more confident now in handling our working relationships.”
