In todays episode we delve into the often overlooked aspect of career progression: leadership obligations and the unconscious journey many individuals embark on when they accept promotions solely for career advancement without fully considering the responsibilities that come with leadership roles.

Drawing from experiences with various senior leaders, we explore how individuals are propelled into leadership positions driven by ambitions for career growth and financial gain. Yet, they shed light on the common scenario where these individuals find themselves ill-prepared for the complexities of managing people and relationships, realising too late the weight of leadership expectations.

Throughout the discussion, we continue to ask the question around the adequacy of organisational processes in preparing individuals for leadership roles. Do organisations do enough to explicitly outline the leadership obligations that accompany promotions? Are there alternative career progression paths that don't necessarily lead to leadership roles?
