Strange isn't it. You have spent years acquiring your trade, your vocation or your profession and you're good at it. Now you're rewarded by being thrown or promoted into a leadership role for which you’ve had little or NO training. Seems absurd that in this day and age that we still follow such an archaic practice. This book shows how to avoid the pitfalls and traps, and instead, how to step up in the new leadership role knowing what to watch out for and what to do and how to do it. You will discover: What to do given that you're being watchedHow you introduce yourself to your new group even if you've been part the group previouslyHow to keep a professional gap as a leaderWhat leadership is really aboutThe differences between leaders and managersWhat the characteristics of real leadership areHow you know yourself as a leaderThe role of emotional intelligenceHow to understand human behaviourHow to communicate effectivelyHow to coach your teamThe key to being assertive and delegateHow to deal with conflictHow to deal with difficult peopleHow to be organised and get things done | You're A New Leader by Darryl G Cross, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
