The first book in the five volume Essentials series empowers you to:
Essential 1 - Take responsibility for your development.
Essential 2 - Make and implement decisions.
Essential 3 - Identify values that make work meaningful.
Essential 4 - Lead true to your best!
You are good at what you do, be it sales, technical work, managing clients, or care giving. You are passionate about it. Therefore the logic goes, you will be good at leading and managing a team in doing that same work.
However, succeeding on your own as an expert and leading and managing a team are two different jobs. The first may be your natural gift; the second you may find ackward and challenging.
For most people, the first experience of leading and managing a team is disconcerting. There is a reason for this. You experience an identity crisis as you take on the roles and rigors of leading a team. What worked before doesn't work anymore. Personal effort and expertise used to be your ticket to success. Now you succeed or fail on the quality of work produced by other people. Your assignment is to accomplish the tasks through team members.
