When you're fortunate enough to have been promoted into a leadership role
be humble enough to admit that the skills that got you this far may not be
suitable or sufficient in your new role. To truly succeed in your new leader-
ship position, you need some brand new skills, styles and behaviours. If you're
not sure what are these are, ask your boss and those who may be in similar
leadership roles to yours.
Your new skills will probably include learning to:
• No longer do everything yourself and instead start delegating and empowering your team
• Stepping back rather than being details focused, micro-managing too much
and not trusting other people's work
• Giving team members the credit rather than simply seeking it for yourself
• NO longer being a sole contributor or loner, and instead needing to communicate more with others. moving from an to a 'we' mentality
•Keeping your emotions in check because now you have a team who will be
influenced and impacted by your
reactions.
