Taking The Lead

For the Love of Work

Congratulations! Getting that first manager role is a huge accomplishment. But wait, do you know how to lead a team? The majority of first time managers don't receive enough training to succeed and lead their team.

In this episode, we’ll show you how to overcome imposter syndrome, how to communicate effectively with your team, and how to lead with vulnerability. How often should you check in with your remote team? What do you do if someone doesn’t respect you in your new role? And, one of the scariest things about being a manager...how do you give constructive feedback?

Basima Tewfik from MIT’s Sloan School of Management explains how to flip the narrative of doubt in your mind and unleash the benefits of so-called imposter syndrome.

Rachel Pacheco at the Wharton School teaches you how to make the implicit explicit in assigning work to team members, how to provide constructive feedback, and how to manage people who are older and more experienced than you.
