Are managers limiting team potential?
Too much control over work?
Managers hold onto decisions and tasks, limiting employee confidence, growth, and opportunities to contribute more effectively.
Employees waiting to be told?
When people are not empowered, they rely on instructions instead of thinking independently or taking ownership of their work.
Low confidence across the team?
A lack of trust and empowerment reduces motivation, confidence, and willingness to step up or take responsibility.

What you’ll learn in this programme
The Unlock Potential programme is delivered as a 1–2 day course, either in person or virtually, depending on your organisation’s needs.
This course helps managers understand how empowerment impacts confidence, motivation, and performance. Managers explore why employees can become overly dependent on direction and how leadership behaviour can either limit or unlock potential.
The programme takes a practical approach to empowerment. Managers learn how to build trust, delegate effectively, and create the right balance between support and autonomy. Emphasis is placed on helping employees think independently, take ownership, and grow in confidence.
Learning is based on real workplace situations, encouraging managers to reflect on their current approach and identify where small changes can make a meaningful difference. This helps managers move away from micro managing and towards more effective leadership.
The content is tailored to your organisation’s culture and challenges, ensuring the learning is relevant and realistic.
