This blog's for you! Being new to a leadership position can feel much like a childhood memory of moving to a new neighborhood, enrolling in a new school, and going through the difficult process of making new friends. It's tough to be the "new kid on the block." Well, welcome to that new neighborhood called leadership!
Now that you're in charge, how does it feel? Chances are, you may have accepted the job without much administrative or managerial training. Lots to learn, little time to learn it, and oh, by the way, next year's budget and the annual report are due next Tuesday.
How will you learn to handle the isolation, the overwhelm, the frustrations of administration, manage to maintain your professional credibility and still have time and energy to spend with your loved ones and your friends?
We're here to help you get past "survive" to "thrive" by offering you a forum for exchanging ideas, concerns, helpful resources, inspiration, and some good laughs to lighten your load. Visit often and take away something of value to help you gain clarity and confidence as a collaborative leader. Welcome to the neighborhood!
