Becoming a new, first-time manager is one of the most difficult jobs you might ever experience. Moving from individual contributor to supervisor or manager requires a whole new set of skills, mindset shifts, and personal pivots.
Too often, people promoted to manager are not given the right training to prepare them for such role. In this episode, I visited with someone who had dedicated her coaching practice to helping new, emerging leaders find better ways to become successful in the role.
