Why I Train and Coach Managers
As a new manager you will be lucky if you get one week’s training.
Even though managers are the backbone of an organization, you definitely will not get a coach. That privilege is reserved for the executives. That’s why I train and coach new managers.
I vividly remember the feeling of entering a conference room for a high-stakes meeting when I was a new manager. All eyes were on me. They were waiting for me to lead! It was at that moment that I wished I could have someone to help me navigate the pressures of the workplace, offer practical advice and help me to develop the skills I needed to succeed.
I never got a coach. I never got a trainer. I never got a consultant. My supervisor was too busy to help. I had to learn on my own. While I made some painful stumbles, I was able to learn and grow through my own efforts with help from empathetic colleagues. That is why I want to train and coach new managers. I understand the importance of having a supportive and knowledgeable guide to help navigate the challenges. Whether it’s dealing with daily demands, overcoming obstacles or developing new skills, having a coach can make the difference in achieving success.
