Operations or Departmental Manager Level 5 is another apprenticeship programme worth exploring, and a partner programme to Team Leader Level 3. Today, we want to talk about why it's a good idea to prepare your leaders for what the future holds, but also how professionalising their ways of working is a beneficial skill set for your managers at any level. We’ll also share how we have seen this standard work with the different clients that we have been working with to deliver the ODM programme.

What You’ll Learn:

- Who the Operations and Departmental Manager Level 5 Programme is for

- How this programme helps leaders navigate and manage change in their organisation

- How ODM enables managers the space to focus on themselves in their day jobs

- The relationship between ODM, and ILM or CMI leadership qualifications

- The benefits of flexibility and personalisation that ODM provides

- Three tips for someone considering this apprenticeship programme 

As an organisation, why wouldn't you want to support and develop your leaders and managers to learn? There is no downside to having more leaders and managers capable of motivating, inspiring, and leading change in your organisation. So go away and think about how you can start to support your leaders and managers further, either through this apprenticeship programme, or some shorter, sharper interventions.
