TEA(M) TIME - Episode 12 - From Expert To Manager: Instant Credibility Is Not Enough

Jul 7 2020 • 24 mins

How to become a people manager? This week, Max & Vince discuss a very common way: the transition from being an expert to being appointed people manager.

What does this transition look like?

When and why can it be dangerous to promote someone based on his/her level of expertise and seniority?

Max & Vince will talk about the instant credibility from which an expert will benefit, and how to put it in perspective.

How to change the way we promote to leadership roles and encourage people to develop more horizontally, from their expertise?

Why do experts need to coach other people?

What can organizations do to facilitate experts' transitions to management?

Max & Vince will end by giving tips to experts struggling in their transition.
