BestHuman, a leader in online leadership development, has announced a partnership with the Vancouver Island Construction Association (VICA) to introduce a new leadership course designed for new managers in the construction industry. The program, titled "Transformative Leadership: Creating Effective Managers," is a comprehensive 7-week live cohort-based course aimed at enhancing the leadership competencies essential for managerial success in today's dynamic workplace.

The course addresses the challenges faced by individuals transitioning from individual contributors to team leaders, such as site supervisors or project managers.

"Moving up into a management role isn’t just about you anymore, it involves people management with leadership competencies," says Humaira Ahmed, founder of BestHuman. "We focus on equipping new managers with essential skills like effective communication, feedback, delegation, time management, and strategic thinking."

"Transformative Leadership" combines practical management tools with innovative leadership mindsets. This hybrid coaching course is structured to empower new supervisors within the construction industry with the skills necessary to navigate complex challenges and lead with confidence. The program includes 7 live sessions delivered through BestHuman's web platform, complemented by over 5 hours of self-directed e-learning. Participants will engage in peer networking and receive personalized coaching, creating a robust community of practice that extends beyond the virtual classroom.

Rory Kulmala, CEO of VICA, highlights the value of this collaboration: "Partnering with BestHuman provides a unique leadership offering to our course catalog that strengthens new leaders through management skills coaching. Taking a coach approach to learning helps new leaders understand themselves and the teams they lead better, while offering practical skills to serve their organizations."

The course also features access to a wealth of self-guided resources and materials, ensuring that learning continues outside of structured sessions. Participants will explore various leadership and management strategies, turning theoretical knowledge into practical, actionable skills.
