Master the fundamentals of managing people, driving performance, and leading with confidence.
Most first-time managers are promoted because of their technical expertise, but they’re rarely given the tools or training to succeed managing people.
Without support, even the most capable new managers tend to struggle with:
- Delegating effectively, often doing the work themselves
- Avoiding difficult conversations or giving unclear, ineffective feedback
- Micromanaging instead of coaching; leading to disengaged teams
- Feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to manage former peers
Equip your new managers with the skills, mindset, and confidence they need to succeed from day one in First-Time Manager Essentials, a hands-on, immersive program delivered in collaboration with Alchemist.
