Transitioning from individual contributor to manager

We usually get promoted because we're really good at being an individual contributor. But, here's the thing - all of the skills that made you a great IC won't make you a great manager. In fact, they can often get in the way. You get one chance to nail the first 90 days with your new team. This workshop equips newly promoted managers with a strategy for releasing control, holding teams accountable, and developing sustainable processes.

What is management and why is it important?

Managers are the cultural custodians of an organization, and they are often the primary reason why people stay or leave. A great manager makes all the difference in a person’s performance, and as an effective manager, we can affect true change and growth in the business. A smooth transition also impacts our own well being by giving us focus, courage, and clarity.

During this workshop, we will:

• Explore the 4 key shifts we need to make to be an effective manager
• Discover tools for effective 1:1s and performance reviews
• Build a 90 day success plan to get your team back on track or make a great impression with your new team
  

After the workshop, you will have learned:

• A repeatable framework for coaching in 1:1s and performance reviews
• A process for growing your team every quarter
• Tactics to shift your perspective making you more effective
