Focusing on Transitions…
When you make a significant role transition, your world suddenly looks very different. New skills are required, expectations have changed and some of the behaviors that that made you successful may actually hold you back in your new role. For example, as a new leader you now have to direct others to do the work you would have done yourself in the past.
