Moving into a leadership role is a significant shift — it's not just about doing the job anymore, it's about guiding others and driving team success. But how do you make that leap, especially when you aren't given the tools to succeed?
In this episode of Mileage May Vary, Mark Williams and leadership expert Vanessa Judelman tackle the challenges of leadership training and the often tricky transition after promotion, including the importance of self-awareness, the need to manage up, the delicate balance between accountability and empathy, and the fact that leading others isn't just about charisma — it's a technical skill, and one you can learn.
We'll discuss how to move forward with confidence, communicate effectively and build a high-performing team.
Learning on the job doesn't mean you're doomed to mediocrity. Tune in to become a better leader and manager, and to learn how to tackle the toughest challenges head-on.
