Building confidence in early leadership

This event was recorded on 04 December 2024

Overview

Stepping into a leadership role is an exciting yet challenging time that often requires changes in priorities, relationships, and self-confidence. Many new leaders feel under-qualified, doubt their skills, or fear they will be exposed as frauds. This lack of self-confidence can hinder decision-making and leadership effectiveness. It’s common to worry about making mistakes or facing backlash from your team or superiors. Establishing authority and gaining respect, especially if you've been promoted from within the same team or are younger than your subordinates, can be particularly challenging. Additionally, navigating the transition from doing to leading, managing time and priorities, and delegating to others can be difficult.

You are not alone! By recognising and addressing these common challenges, you can become a more effective and self-assured leader. Join us for our interactive workshop where you will learn how to build your confidence.
