Hello, I'm Madeleine Ravetta

I know from decades of management experience that when you're good at what you do, you end up being promoted to a manager, and your previous skills won't necessarily help you.

I want to share with you my learning materials to help you to develop leadership, management and communication skills and to become the very best manager that you can be. 
When I look back at my past self, I can identify a few milestone moments that have shaped who I am today, and what I care about.

​One of those moments is when I first became a manager. I took over a project team of around 50 people, and realised that my previous technical skills did not equip me to manage others.

When you're promoted because you're good at what you do, you end up in a role where you need completely different skills

I realise now, that being promoted because I was good at what I did, simply meant that I had to do something else. I wasn't equipped for the manager role, and so I muddled through.

I can help you with all those skills you need as a manager

Skills like:
  • 1:1 meetings
  • Appraisals
  • Communication skills
  • Management skills
  • Motivating
  • Coaching
  • Recruitment and Interviewing
  • Setting goals
  • Delegating
  • Managing Performance
  • and many more.

The Management Skills Club for Technical Professionals

​Join today

If you are a technical professional, newly promoted, or hoping to be promoted to a management role, then this club is for you.

If you want to excel as a manager, but haven't yet developed the people management skills that you need, then I can help you.

The Management Skills Club is a free Facebook Group where I  help newly promoted and aspiring managers to be clear on their actions and to develop the skills of management.
