The skills that made you a star individual contributor won't make you a successful manager.
Yesterday you were one of the team-today you're their boss, and everything just got complicated.The transition to management feels like being thrown into deep water without swimming lessons. You're suddenly responsible for other people's performance, navigating office politics, having difficult conversations, and making decisions that affect careers-all while your former peers now report to you.This essential guide provides the leadership foundation every first-time manager needs but rarely receives. You'll learn how to establish authority without alienating your team, earn respect rather than demanding it, and avoid the costly mistakes that derail promising management careers.You'll discover how to transition from peer to leader while maintaining relationships, delegate effectively without micromanaging or abandoning your team, have performance conversations that improve rather than demoralize, build trust when you're still figuring things out yourself, and balance being liked with being respected.Learn why technical expertise that earned your promotion won't guarantee management success. Understand the fundamental mindset shift from doing the work to enabling others to do it-the transition that determines whether you thrive or struggle in leadership.This book exposes common first-time manager mistakes that damage teams and careers-from trying to be everyone's friend and avoiding difficult conversations to micromanaging details and failing to develop people. You'll recognize these patterns before they become destructive habits.Explore the specific challenges of managing former peers who wanted your position, older or more experienced team members, remote or hybrid teams, and inherited problem performers. Each scenario requires different approaches you'll master.
