Managing people is hard

We often become managers because we are good at our job - not because we know how to manage! Together we will unpack and discover how to overcome common and thorny management issues that everyone encounters.

Management skills are individual

What you struggle with is not a problem for others, and your approach will be different too. Each week Lucy unpacks one issue but provides practical solutions that can be tailored to you, your style and your strengths.

Training is a luxury

Right now, no-one has time for professional development! These free, 30 minute, bite-sized lessons are convenient, accessible and practical. They focus on providing real solutions and strategies to real-life challenges.  No frills.  No strings.  Just good advice.

About the course

For 30 minutes every week, we will look at a specific management challenge - unpack it and learn practical tips, tricks and strategies so you can manage with confidence.  No-one wants to be a bad manager - but very rarely are we given the skills and support needed to manage people. Whether you are in consulting, government, business or the non-government sector, managing people is a part of work life. These sessions are for the missing middle - managers everywhere that are managing teams and looking for advice so they can do it well.  Wednesday Workarounds have got your back!

Hi! I am Lucy Cole-Edelstein

For over 30 years I have built a career, teams and a business.  I have managed people in large corporates and as a small agency founder, and I still provide advice, coaching and mentoring to people at all stages in their careers.  I am passionate about good management - I believe our job is to provide people with the support they need so they can shine, and to do that with grace, integrity and respect - and passionate about helping people be the best they can be. Training has been a core component of my career and I keep coming back to it - I love learning and I love people. I look forward to working with you!

'As a 'newbie' to the consulting world, Kadima Training has provided me with a solid foundation of managing and working with clients, co-workers and how to manage myself and my expectations within this new space.'

Graduate consultant

We reached out to Lucy as she’s been in our shoes. Lucy not only understands the challenge we face in trying to build a new business, but also the hurdles our new team member might be encountering. She gave three members of our team a core set of tools to help them navigate these challenges together with some more tailored advice. They raved about the course. I can see how they have each applied the tools learned, all in their own individual way, translating into more confidence and less frustration when issues arise.
