Only 15% of new managers received a specific training on how to be a manager.
So not surprising that many struggle in the first year of becoming a manager.
In the webinar last Wednesday ‘What to Know as A New Manager’ Zohrab Chong also shared his observations that in some companies there is not even a change in the job description when someone gets promoted to become a manager. Tak tukar JD pun.
No change in expectations, no change in KPI therefore no change in behavior la.
Being a manager requires a change in mindset. No longer an individual contributor.
There is a team that is dependent on you.
Recording of the webinar is available on my YouTube channel.
You can listen to me and Zohrab discussing about the key priorities at the start of a manager’s life.
