The Role of a Line Manager
Being a line manager in every business is different, so how do you know how to be the best at it?

In this course we’ll follow a structured process that will help you identify what your role includes and the skills you’ll need to be successful at it.

You might not think early roles in radio, interior design and DIY sound like the most convincing career choices for someone who has since spent over two decades as a Learning and Development professional! But all three of these roles gave me some great opportunities to learn about people, hone my training, and facilitation skills, and craft my own path in a career I love.
Having gained many professional qualifications and experience in public and private sector L&D roles, I founded Curious Lighthouse Learning Consultancy Ltd in early 2016, where I specialises in increasing competence and confidence in Line Managers and Trainers to enhance their performance, whether they are at the very start of their journey or experienced professionals.
I love that my role allows me to work with all types of companies from small growing companies to larger established corporates, and from local charities to the NHS Trusts.
I'm passionate about using creative learning methods which, as well as increasing engagement in the sessions, ensures better retention of information and quicker transfer of skills back into the workplace. (And yes, I do use LEGO® in many of the my sessions!!)
Curious Lighthouse is based in Hampshire and mainly serves the south coast.
Testimonials for Nikie Forster
“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Nikie on the Lightbulb management development programme. Each session was hugely informative and great fun. In 4 short weeks I now have the tools to go forward and be a better Manager and guide the rest of my team to success. Nikie’s approach to training is so refreshing and like nothing I’ve done before. There was never a dull moment, and I was fully engaged the entire time. My whole working style has changed for the better already and I feel a new sense of passion for my role. To anyone looking to build on your management skills then look no further! Thank you Nikie!”
Lisa Atkins-Gough - Operations Manager
“Having completed my supervisor training programme with Nikie, I found her sessions to be both fun and informative. She seems to have this way of making you think and see things from different angles, and this has really helped me gain loads more confidence in myself, it is helping me deal with both home and work situations with a better outlook. I can’t thank Nikie enough for the confidence she has given me.”
“I adore Nikie and her teaching style, I thought the course would be informative and teach me the basics, but it was so much more than this. Her teaching style was so refreshing as I was engaged the whole time making me think so much deeper into each subject. Having completed my course, we asked Nikie to come back and train eight more people. I know everyone took away as much as I did from the course, Nikie is able to work with an individual or larger groups but still make everyone in the room feel comfortable and listened too, giving everyone the opportunity to ask questions and give their opinions. It’s so nice to be able to be part of the conversation rather than just being talked at. She makes learning enjoyable and stimulating which is rare, I would highly recommend her and the work she does.”
Beth Ash - Production Manager
“Nikie has changed my life at work! She has worked with us in building trust and open communication within the management team. It has completely changed our communication style and has had a great impact on our moral.”
