As a new manager,
do you often encounter situations or emotions that challenge your role?

Stepping into a management role for the first time may be the most significant learning curve a manager will ever face!

Sadly, and all too often, new and enthusiastic managers are thrown into the deep end and left to navigate their new role on their own.

They often receive no formal training or mentorship and if they are lucky,
they might receive a few brief coaching opportunities by their own overburdened and time-poor manager. 

This all too common situation drove us to find and develop a solution
to help overwhelmed managers thrive!

LEAD STRONG 

A Development Program designed specifically for First Time Managers, regardless of their job title!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ROBYN TRELOAR, Finance Manager, Hapaitia, New Zealand

I am so glad that I found the Kinetik Global Lead Strong Leadership course! The structure and content of the course that they have created is absolutely full of relevant and inspiring information.  The one-on-one coaching and psychometric testing adds extra support in understanding what you need to be successful. 

I can see as I am going through the course, that is giving me a solid foundation of when I am in the job of managing that I have the ability to know what to do. It is a course that is giving me "light bulb" moments and I can feel my confidence levels rising. The 10 modules which you can do at your own pace and multiple times is well structured and takes you on a journey of inspired learning. 

Well done Kinetik Global for creating a wonderful and inspiring course! It is definitely value for money and very accessible!

WHY OUR CLIENTS LOVE LEAD STRONG

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alister Milligan, WA Location Manager, WA

When my management group put me on Lead Strong, I asked, 'Why?' I’m 63, planning to retire soon, but this program has revitalised me. It made me realise I have some deeply ingrained habits, both good and bad. I told Samantha that I often prioritise perfection over connection, but Lead Strong has helped me reconnect with my team. In just a few months, I've developed a better connection and am working towards leaving a strong legacy for my team.

If you’re new to this program, some aspects may seem unfamiliar, but it's about prioritising people over perfection—including yourself. I’ve learned a lot, even at my age, and it’s been fantastic. I highly recommend embracing this program. 

August 2024

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Richard Walker, National Sales Manager, QLD

Dealing with Sam is an absolute pleasure. I signed up for the Kinetik Global Lead Strong program as part of a development initiative with my employer.

Normally, I'm terrible at studying and have signed up for courses before without completing them.

Sam's personal approach with each team member, along with her encouragement and guidance, made this the first course I've completed and enjoyed since leaving high school almost 2 decades ago!

 

August 2024

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Glenn Christie, Contract Manager, QLD

I recently had the pleasure of utilising the Lead Strong program provided by Kinetik Global, and it’s a credit to Sam and her team to the amount of learning and value this program provides being a first time leader.

It really steered me into the fundamental steps of leadership. From the learning of self-discovery and setting and hitting goals, to time management and in-depth problem solving the program helped me realise my potential to better myself, therefore improve and empower our team strongly for the future. With the one-on-one quality time also provided when needed, Sam helped me with a clear foresight to take on my challenges so they weren’t overwhelming.

I really cannot recommend this course enough for first time leaders, whatever industry you’re in!

June 2024

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brad Pazokifard, Account Manager, QLD

I am really enjoying the course (Lead Strong) that I am doing for First Time Managers at Kinetik Global. This course will equip you with the knowledge and skills that you need when you step into a leadership role

Although I haven’t become a manager yet in my current role, I’ve already put some of what I learnt into practice such as goal setting, effective communication, and time management skills.

Thank you Kinetik Global, I am getting so much knowledge and am very thankful for my mentor, Sam D’Angelo who has been supporting me by making sure I understand the course modules along the way.

The driving force behind
LEAD STRONG

LEAD STRONG was conceived by Samantha D’Angelo, Founder and Director of Kinetik Global, in response to a recurring challenge she observed from her years working in the professional landscape:

THE STRUGGLE OF NEW MANAGERS

Sam, recognising the significant impact of many individuals transitioning into managerial roles without the essential foundational leadership training, was seriously concerned.

Through her direct experiences, she saw how such gaps hindered not only individual growth but also detrimentally impacted team unity and broader organisational performance.

Driven by a strong resolve to correct this situation, Sam drew upon her extensive background as an HR professional, high-performance coach, and leadership trainer to establish LEAD STRONG - a testament to her commitment to cultivating confident and effective managers. With her handpicked team of experienced coaches, Sam is committed to steering each participant toward their highest potential, empowering them to excel with LEAD STRONG!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ CLINT LIST, National Human Resources & Training Manager, Triple M Tray Bodies, QLD 

I’ve been very interested to hear of the development and birth of the Lead Strong Program. Since its very early creation stages, Sam and Mandi have proactively sought industry advice and input, crafting a meaningful package to assist first-time leaders. That openness has translated into a product I’m confident will provide results. I’m excited to engage and be able to measure its effectiveness – such is the structure and support provided. It promises to be market-leading in my view and something leaders will grow from and embrace.
