Package Description:
I’ve had the opportunity over the years to work with hundreds of professionals navigating the transition from high-performing individual contributor to first-time manager. It’s a big leap — and often a vulnerable one. Here are five challenges I consistently see: 🔹 Imposter syndrome — Doubting whether you’re truly “qualified” to lead others. 🔹 Feedback struggles — Giving it too harshly, sugar-coating it, or avoiding it altogether. 🔹 Delegation misfires — Struggling to calibrate how much direction or autonomy to give to team members. 🔹 Time management breakdowns — Navigating doing the work with getting work done through others. 🔹 Mistaking busy for impactful — Prioritizing the urgent over what actually moves the needle. Are you working through any of these challenges? If so, I’d love to help. This package includes three one-hour coaching sessions and relevant resources targeting one or two skills you'd like support with in your role as a manager.
What you'll get from this package
Clear strategies to help you to improve your skills as a manager.
