The problem
The CMI found that as many as 82% of new managers in the UK are what it calls “accidental managers” – embarking on the role with no formal training in management or leadership.
YouGov (2022), questioned 4,500 workers and managers in the UK. While one in four people in the UK workforce holds a management role, only a quarter of workers (27%) describe their manager as “highly effective”.
Of those workers who do not rate their manager, only a third (34%) feel motivated to do a good job and only one in four (25%) are happy with their overall compensation.
A large majority (72%) of those workers who rated their manager as effective felt valued and appreciated. This figure dropped to just 15% when the manager was rated as ineffective (Personnel Today 2023)
Those managers who had undergone training appeared to be more likely to call out bad behaviour – 25% said they had done so, against 15% of untrained managers. (Guardian 2023

The solution
thrive Essential Hospitality Leadership Development
An aspiring manager can prepare for the future by learning about leadership styles and basic management frameworks. In doing so, they can prepare themselves to succeed when it comes time for a promotion.
The earlier a professional learns how to direct employees without micromanaging, the more effective their team will be. Once you have the basic skills nailed down, you can continue to learn, grow, and adapt to whatever role you take on (Harvard Business Review 2022 )
While you can gain valuable on-the-job training throughout your career, taking a course can bolster your skills and credentials. A management training program can help you overcome situations that arise in the workplace by equipping you to be more detail-oriented, teaching you how to ask the right questions, and strengthening your analytical skills.
The specific benefits of management training programs include:
• A deeper understanding of the role of a manager
• Helpful feedback from experienced professionals
• Improved communication skills
• Refined decision-making skills
• The ability to manage organisational change
• Knowledge of how to implement strategies, plans, and budgets
