People Managers are more crucial than ever as they are at the heart of today’s most pressing workplace issues. Add to that the heavy load of now having to care for the wellness of their teams, it is more evident that a People Manager’s relational competencies are critical in leading their team.

Workers and managers today struggle to balance conflicting interests and expectations while responding to diverse and sometimes opposing priorities. It is difficult—sometimes impossible—to satisfy all collaborators while still achieving organisational, departmental, and project goals. This often leads to stress and overwhelm resulting in negative outcomes. Workers' ability to manage stakeholders and cultivate healthy work relationships is a key gap.

As the workplace rapidly evolves, workers need to adapt whilst maintaining good relationships with the people who have an influence on your work, and to whom your work matters. Stakeholder management comes to the fore.
