đ˘ Stepping into a new leadership role? Hereâs what you need to know!
Many leaders are promoted because of past success, but excelling in a new position requires a mindset shift, strategic thinking, and adaptability. In Episode 4 of Managing High-Stress Projects Q&A, I sit down with Tom Witterholt to uncover the essential strategies for leaders stepping into new roles or industries.
đ Key Takeaways from Our Discussion:
â Donât over-rely on past success â Each role demands a fresh perspective.
â Learn beyond your expertise â True leadership extends outside your comfort zone.

â Observe, adapt, and evolve â Every leadership level brings new challenges & expectations.
