When you’re promoted into a leadership role, no one tells you that being good at your job doesn’t automatically make you good at managing people.
In this episode, Zulean joins the We Are For Good pod to break down what actually helps new managers succeed—and what gets in the way.
From learning to build trust instead of micromanaging, to reflecting before reacting, to asking better questions that unlock real team growth—Zulean shares practical tools and real talk. Whether you're leading for the first time, guiding a team through change, or just trying not to burn out while checking in on everyone—this one's for you, amigui.
