Meeting Room 1 (Large Glass), 1st FloorCongratulations, you’ve been promoted! And as exciting as this time may be, this shift has the potential to create all kinds of challenges. Your role has changed, and so must you!
One day you're sharing similar responsibilities, challenges, and frustrations with your peers and the next you are the person who needs to guide and motivate these same individuals. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted! And as exciting as this time may be, this shift has the potential to create all kinds of challenges like negative impact on the team dynamic, resentment, hurt feelings, and more. Your role has changed, and so must you!
But fear not! There are things you can do to help make a smooth transition. In this session we’ll share the best advice we have for new leaders making the transition from peer to manager. These simple leadership strategies can help you grow your confidence and capability and in turn will help your direct reports feel empowered to become followers and fans.
This event is sponsored by Real Good Ventures and is part of Better Toledo, a personal and professional development series to ensure “you will do better in Toledo." Certificates of completion are available to participants who take part in three or more sessions in 2022. For group registrations please call 419-259-5293.
