French term

Conduite des collaborateurs

French to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
I'm translating a business diploma and one of the subjects studied is 'Conduite des collaborateurs'. My best guess would be employee management/supervision. Any ideas?

Not really. The term is in a list of subjects along with the grades:

Organisation
Conduite des collaborateurs
Marketing
Logistique d'entreprise
Informatique, etc.

Any additional context?

Team leadership

I think that leadership is the sense of "conduite" in this context. Team leadership can refer to informal or ad hoc teams of co-workers. Leadership (unlike management), implies personal qualities, rather than hierarchical status.

neutral MatthewLaSon : Not convinced. I don't have the proof. It's most likely "team management".

I didn't have proof either and must admit I didn't look for any, but the Asker seems to have found some.

Managing the employees/staff

Employee/team management/leadership/supervision all seem reasonable, depending on context.
"Leading the staff" was used in the example below.

Team management

Hello,

I think this is "team management", not "team leadership."

conduite = management (easy to find out if you google)

I hope this helps.
