| SMA Training Courses in March |
Managing Conflict & Communication at Work
NEW DATE: Friday 19 March
10.00-14.00, London
Who is this for?
This course is designed for Stage Managers.
At any level you have to influence, lead and manage other people. Your role will bring you into contact with people from other disciplines and walks of life and your ability to do this successfully will set you apart from the crowd. The ability to negotiate yourself through difficult situations will help you not only with your teams, crews and company but also when you need to stand up for your own deal, contract or job.
