First Time Managers: Know the Essentials

Rewarding a high performing employee with a promotion to manage their peers is a widely accepted business practice. However, the transition from successful employee to successful manager isn’t as straightforward as a new job title and a pay rise. Your best salesperson can become your worst sales manager because they don’t possess what is a completely new set of skills. According to a CIPD report, 60% of first-time managers fail because the skill set required is entirely different to what their old job involved. Our Accidental Managers workshop prepares new managers for success by providing the relevant skills to effectively manage, motivate and lead their team.
