Leadership Confessions: Accountability Skills to Set New Leaders Up for Success
In a recent survey, nearly two-thirds of new managers say leading people is more difficult than they expected. And no wonder – most people find themselves in a leadership role because they performed well in their previous position or had strong technical skills, not because they were experienced leaders or even exemplified traditional leadership traits.
Stepping into their roles with little to no leadership training or experience, new leaders often are suffering silently as they attempt to effectively manage their teams. Holding people accountable is tough. Resolving conflicts is tough. Addressing poor performance is tough. So, how can organizations help new leaders develop confidence in their role, find joy in their work, and effectively manage team accountability and performance? In this session, Joseph Grenny will share four confessions of new leaders and the solutions needed to help fresh and season leaders alike successfully guide their teams.
