Fast Track New Managers: Make Sure They Have the “Right Stuff ” to Be Peak Performers’

Success strategies to fast track new managers

Fast track New Managers. Moving into a managerial role requires the development of leadership skills and techniques to enhance your personal and team outcomes. Very often, however, many new managers fail to grasp how their roles have changed; that their jobs are no longer about personal achievement but instead about enabling others to achieve; that sometimes driving the bus means taking a backseat: and that building a team is often more important than making a sale.

New managers have these challenges:

• Adjusting to unanticipated reality of managerial life: Not being in control because of the often-conflicting demands of your boss, staff and peers
• Switching from relying solely on their formal title and authority to establishing credibility and influence with their team and other stakeholders
• Letting go of old ways of working from being responsible just for your own results to now being responsible for the work and results of the entire team

Using the analogy of an orchestra, a new manager must move from being a talented violinist who concentrates on playing his or her instrument skillfully to being a conductor who coordinate the efforts of all the musicians.
