Learn how to manage tasks AND lead your team.

Congratulations! You've probably recently been promoted into management. Or maybe you're just waiting for that day to come.

Either way, it’s great to consider what being a manager is all about. Because even though most organizations promote their high achieving individual contributors into management, being a manager isn’t like a bigger, higher paid version of what you used to do. THE JOB ITSELF IS DIFFERENT.

HERE'S WHAT YOU

PROBABLY DON'T KNOW

Investing just a little bit of time into this training can help you:

IMPRESS YOUR BOSS IN YOUR FIRST 90 DAYS

You may have been the boss's favorite when you were an individual contributor, but being a manager is a totally different playing field. And you can count on your boss watching your every move. Making sure you're successful in the first 90 days will solidify her trust in you as a manager.

BUILD GENUINE RELATIONSHIPS WITH YOUR DIRECT REPORTS

You'll want to build trust with your direct reports, which comes from building authentic relationships. When trust is high, your team will feel more engaged, be more innovative and get more things done.

AVOID THE MOST COMMON MISTAKES NEW MANAGERS MAKE

First time managers often make mistakes as they get used to their new role. If you're aware of the most common mistakes ahead of time, you'll be able to catch yourself and adjust before going too far down the wrong path.

"The lines between management and leadership are really blurred. You need to manage tasks and you need to lead your people."

"I love the LeadX Academy, have learnt so much from it."

LEADxAcademy Member

I was a micro managing boss that cared about the results, and how they were achieved more than the people achieving them. I found LEADx about 3 months ago, and as I listened and interacted, my life changed. Because of the lessons taught by you, the guests of LEADx and the curriculum of the LEADx Academy, Ive been able to completely rewrite my approach to leadership and associate development and engagement. My Q12 scores went from 67 to 90, In 6 months.
