New Manager Training

So you promoted your rockstar individual contributor…

and they have no idea how to manage those they were just working alongside.

When your new leader fails, your organization pays a high price. Direct expenses due to the transition, lost momentum on projects and programs, and TIME —for the replacement leader to develop relationships, build trust and address any baggage left behind by their predecessor; it all adds up.

With these numbers, you would think all organizations would invest in the development of leadership capability for their new leaders. Unfortunately that’s not the case. We know that from our own conversations with clients, and the proof is in the stats as well.

50% to 70% of executives fail within 18 months of taking on a role, regardless of whether they were an external hire or promoted from within, according to research from the Corporate Executive Board.

As you promote or hire a leader, consider what role they’ll play at what scale, and offer individualized leadership development to help them succeed in their new role. With training and coaching you can help them identify a strategic leadership style, strategize their action plans, adapt to politics, pressure, and new expectations, and prioritize listening, learning and delegation.

Your result? Your new leader will be set up for success and able and to lead their team to perform well and increase results and revenue for your organization.
