Your First Leadership Role: A Practical Guide for New Managers

Your First Leadership Role: A Practical Guide for New Managers

Being good at your job does not automatically prepare you to manage other people. Your first leadership role brings different responsibilities, changing relationships and decisions that no longer affect only you.

This practical guide from Paula Donnan Advisory helps you prepare for those demands and identify what to focus on during your first 90 days.

Organised into three stages, Start Well, Build the Team and Lead Day to Day, it includes 10 practical steps to help you:

• Understand your new responsibilities and agree what success looks like.

• Recognise how your strengths can help or get in the way.

• Build trust and manage people who were previously your peers.

• Set clear expectations and give useful feedback.

• Delegate with greater clarity and make considered decisions.

Each step includes clear actions, a quick tool to use at work and guidance for situations that prove harder than expected. A reflection worksheet helps you review your progress after your first month and again at 90 days.

Suitable for: Newly promoted managers, first-time team leaders and professionals preparing to take on leadership responsibility.
