What's the best way to get started as a brand new leader????
I know when I as a brand new leader I wanted to make a good first impression, make a huge impact, and not mess anything up, but I was nervous because I didn't know what I needed to do to make that happen.
Can I just say, if you're stepping into a new role, I hope you're proud of yourself for even thinking about taking this on?
Yes, it can be scary at first, but it's also the greatest gift that you can give others.
Working for a leader like you, someone who is eager to grow and get better for the benefit of the entire team, is a privilege in my book.
But also knowing a few of the things I shared in today's episode can help you get a speed boost right out of the gate.
Prior to jumping into online leadership and life coaching which I do now, I worked for the Los Angeles Police Department for 20 years.
I was put into several positions where I didn't feel prepared or qualified to lead.
People's lives would depend on me, and that's some crazy pressure to perform, especially when you're brand new.
Now I know your situation might be different than mine, but I also want you to know that if I can get through that, you can do this too.
That being said, I want to share 10 things I would personally focus on if I were to get started as a brand new leader again, so I could hit the ground running without having to go through all the pain of trial and error at first that I did.
