Creating Effective Managers and Strengthening Teams with Maurice Ducoing

Scaling With People

Do you feel like your organization’s growth is being hampered by ineffective management? Maurice Ducoing, founder and CEO of Ducoing Human Capital, is here to shed light on how to channel strategies for aligning mission, vision, and values, and managing the talent lifecycle, to create effective managers. With over 15 years of human capital management experience under his belt, Maurice guides us through the essentials of upskilling managers by enhancing their technical skills, talent skills, and leadership skills.
The modern workplace can often feel isolating; a lack of connection or support is common and can have disastrous effects on employee morale. But what if there was a way to combat this? Maurice helps us explore this notion, advocating a strong emphasis on understanding and valuing the strengths of every team member. Unearthing the importance of an individualized approach to managing, he presents a compelling case for developing a strengths-based organization, leading to increased performance, output, and ultimately, value.
Ever wondered how to maintain a balance between work efficiency and psychological safety? We delve into this topic with Maurice, who brings to the fore the importance of curbing distractions and structuring work. We discuss the benefits of a four-day work week, delve into MIT research on ideal meeting times, and explore how to create a psychologically safe environment. Maurice leaves us with a final powerful note: the significance of mental health, reminding us that a happy team is a productive team.
