New Manager Training
Too often, new managers are left to sink or swim without the support they need to thrive. They lack the mindset and skills to lead with courage, authenticity, and impact. That’s where transformative new manager skills come in. At Fierce Inc., we know that transitioning from individual contributor to manager is one of the most demanding career shifts.
Don’t let your new managers stumble through trial and error. Give them the foundation they need to lead with confidence and resilience. Invest in their development, and watch them become the fierce leaders your organization needs to thrive in any challenge.
Program Overview
Through our proven, research-backed program, your new managers will learn to:
- Embrace a leadership mindset focused on empowering their teams and driving results
- Master the art of coaching, delegation, and giving impactful feedback
- Confront challenges head-on with courage and vulnerability
- Foster a culture of inclusion, curiosity, and continuous growth
- Communicate with authenticity to build trust and psychological safety
Our leadership training for new managers is about something other than checking boxes or memorizing scripts. It’s about having fierce conversations that get to the heart of what matters. When your managers communicate courageously, they can transform their teams, your culture, and your bottom line.
Flexible New Manager Training, Programs, and Courses

How We Train Frontline Managers and New Leaders
Our Five-Step Process
We have developed a powerful five-step process to train new managers, from initial assessment to ongoing reinforcement, designed to maximize the impact and sustainability of your training investment.
Assess
Our comprehensive consultation process sets the stage for transformative growth. We gain deep insights into your unique needs and culture through data collection, benchmark surveys, and DISC assessments. From there, we craft a customized Fierce program plan that aligns with your strategic objectives and sets your new managers up for success.
Excite
Generating enthusiasm and buy-in is critical to the success of any new manager development initiative. That’s why we work with you to develop a compelling company-wide communication strategy, deliver engaging introductory presentations, and conduct energizing pilot sessions that give your emerging leaders a taste of the Fierce approach.
Educate
The workshop is where the true business impact begins. Our expert facilitators leverage a strategic mix of learning modalities, from instructor-led sessions to on-demand courses, role-playing exercises, and case study discussions. This multi-faceted approach ensures that your new managers learn and apply essential leadership skills in real-world scenarios.
Engage
At Fierce, our priority is empowering you with sustained talent development. Our expert facilitators will continue to keep your new managers engaged and accountable, arming them with workshop journals, conversation starters, accountability partner pairings, and feedback loops. This ensures that your team retains what they learn and begins taking action.
Reinforce
Continued new manager development is essential to long-term success. Our reinforcement phase includes on-demand learning solutions as well as: cohort celebrations to recognize progress, mentoring sessions with experienced managers, refresher workshops to deepen skill mastery, and peer support forums to ensure alignment.
Managing Challenges For New Managers
New managers want to prove their worth, demonstrating they have the ability to meet or exceed expectations. Their stance makes them unwilling or unable to delegate and develop their team members. They likely have a to-do list filled with tasks they enjoy, tasks they dislike, and tasks they simply think no one else can possibly manage. New managers need guidance to focus on the tasks which are central to achieving their goals and supporting their team, giving them the incentive to delegate and develop their team members so everyone can be more productive. Organizations benefit from Fierce New Manager training when new leaders learn everyone is better served by delegating for the development of others in the organization.
