CITB Developing Yourself as a Team Leader

This CITB Leadership & Management course in Developing Yourself as a Team Leader was developed by the construction specialists Acadame.

Delivered at our centre in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, virtually online or on-site; the purpose of this standard is to enable the delegate to develop knowledge and understanding of the role and responsibilities of a team leader and be able to improve personal performance:

  • roles and responsibilities of the team leader
  • seeking feedback on workplace performance to identify strengths, weaknesses and areas for improvement

Leadership and management are key skills for all construction sites and an area where the industry has identified a need for greater support and training.
