Program Description

The Duke Management Program (DMP) translates the science of management into practical insights and actionable items. By using a diagnosis-and-treatment approach, you'll learn how to identify the causes and solutions to prevent team inefficiencies and underperformance. By working through different management scenarios you’ll learn to:

Avoid common decision traps so you can make good decisions and create effective plans
Determine what motivates—and what demotivates—each employee
Convey employee feedback that is fair and accurate
Coach for skill and career development
Use your power-personal and positional-to gain additional resources
Manage your team through skilled negotiation and networking
Create effective structures, procedures, and cultures

Through experiential learning modules you will sharpen the skills necessary to become a valued manager. You will:

Create a Management Action Plan (MAP) specific to your team, using your Six Effects of Management survey.
Simulate intra-organizational negotiation methods to sustain employee motivation.
Manage changing views of conflict across all stakeholders.
Map and create a strategy for your network.
Use a “Motivation Analyzer” to find weak links between incentives and performance.
Develop a timeline to improve and measure your managerial effectiveness.
Practice a “Difficult Feedback” exercise.
