Leadership training before starting the new year

When someone takes on team leadership responsibility, they must combine judgment, active listening, and delegation skills. Year-end is a good time to review how they exercise this role and prepare for the challenges ahead.

Practice decisions before returning to the office

A simulation can present a shared objective with limited resources and different priorities. The coordinator must decide what to delegate, what information they need, and how to explain their decisions. The session allows you to analyze concrete behaviors in a defined situation.

Reflection can start with simple questions: Have we left space for others to contribute their perspective? Have we explained the objective clearly enough? What happened when someone disagreed? The answers help you choose a practice to try afterward.

If the company has pending FUNDAE training credits, it can consider a leadership-focused training action. It's important to define the competencies to be developed and review the program and bonus conditions before committing to its execution.

Work with relevant dilemmas

The program makes more sense if it starts with decisions that team leaders face regularly. How do we delegate a new task? What do we do when two team members need resources at the same time? How do we approach a proposal we don't agree with? These questions help you choose the situations to practice, with a difficulty level appropriate for the group.

After the simulation, it's useful to separate the decision from the process used to make it. You might have reached an appropriate answer without listening to all contributions, or it might have taken too long because it wasn't clear who was deciding. Analyzing these moments allows you to develop leadership based on observable behaviors and avoid generic conclusions about each person's character.

Define an achievable change

Each leader can choose a practice to apply to their team, such as explaining the limits of a delegation or scheduling a conversation to listen to alternatives before deciding. It's helpful to attach a specific situation and date to it, and revisit the experience later. This continuity gives the training a clear connection to the responsibilities that will be exercised in the new year. Sharing this intention with the team also makes it possible to explain why you want to try a different approach to that specific situation.
