In the world of Human Resources there are certain truths that no one can deny. One of the most obvious is that People are the cornerstone of our organizations<\/strong> and that the key to the future development of our companies is, in turn, the development of our employees. We could write hundreds of pages about the importance of development and training, but today we will focus on one critical aspect: the importance of Middle Management development. To do this, we will rely on a recent project of this type that we have carried out from our Development & Training Area<\/a><\/strong><\/span> for one of our clients, the Neolith Group. <\/p>\n

Why is Middle Management Development important?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In any organizational structure we find several types of positions. Some with a more fragmented vision and others with the ability to contemplate the company as a whole and its main challenges in the medium and long term. Along with the latter, there are a series of professionals whose main mission will be to transfer the values and long-term vision of the organization and turn it into a management style that guides the day-to-day towards corporate objectives. <\/p>\n

These people have a leading role since in some way they live \u201coutside of time\u201d. They make Tolstoy’s maxim their own: <\/p>\n

\u201cThe past is no longer there, the future has not yet arrived. What is there then? Just that point where the future meets the past.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is how they turn the present into the future of our organization.<\/p>\n

This role is supported by different personal, relational and leadership skills that, if well combined, will guide these professionals in the right direction. Therefore, investment in the development of these figures in our organizations should not be left out of any training plan. <\/p>\n

Which competencies are the most important?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Traditionally, great importance has been given to the so-called Hard Skills, those skills of a more technical nature that are learned through education and experience.<\/p>\n

Together with these, Soft Skills make up a second group of personal competencies to carry out a task or mission within an organization and that allow us to offer unique and differentiating results. That is why, rather than soft, it would be more convenient to call them Power Skills<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, those that have the power to boost our performance, that of Middle Managers and that of the entire organization. <\/p>\n

When it comes to implementing a training and development plan, we must not forget about these Power Skills.<\/p>\n
