Promoted From a Group of Peers - To Now Manage Them
John is a sales and marketing executive for a public company, recently promoted from a group of his peers. These peers became his new direct reports. John felt uncomfortable and awkward giving direction to this new group of managers, resulting in a decline of communication and team productivity. In the Leadership & Executive Development coaching program, John developed an action plan to involve his managers in more strategic planning and decision making, giving them greater responsibility. The corner was turned and his managers began to feel empowered – creating a cohesive team environment.
