Four progressive learning paths and 20+ AI simulations covering the full range of managerial skills.
The Fundamentals
The essential groundwork for first-time managers. Learn to set expectations, build ownership and communicate clearly.
Build ownership without pushback
Your team member Lucas tends to wait for instructions. You need to get him taking initiative without rushing him or setting him up to fail.
Help prioritise without taking over
Your team is overloaded and Marie arrives with a list of tasks she cannot possibly finish this week. You need to help her prioritise without taking the work back yourself.
Address behaviour everyone has stopped mentioning
Thomas is consistently late to team meetings. Nobody says anything. You decide to raise it with him.
Address personal phone use at work
Sofia spends a lot of time on her personal phone during work hours. Her colleagues have noticed. You need to raise it tactfully.
Give constructive feedback

Sensitive Situations
Delicate conversations that call for judgement and experience. Learn to navigate relational complexity.
Set boundaries with an expert without dismissing them
Marc, a respected technical expert, routinely challenges your decisions in meetings. You need to rein that in while still valuing his expertise.

Broach the personal with dignity

Team Dynamics
Managing group dynamics, conflict and collective situations. Management at the level of the team.
Resolve a senior–junior clash
Pierre (senior) and Léa (junior) are in open conflict. He finds her sloppy, she finds him condescending. The team atmosphere is deteriorating.

Sarah, normally full of energy, has shown signs of disengagement for weeks. You need to open a conversation and understand what is going on.

Hugo is furious at being passed over for an important project, and says so openly. You need to receive that frustration without feeding it, and bring him back on board.
Reassure the team and reorganise the work
