Asking For A Friend: How Can I Be An Amazing Manager At Work?

Being a manager isn’t easy. (Seriously, just ask Mary Fitzgerald.) Leading a whole team of diverse humans with varying needs and goals can feel super overwhelming. So how do you confidently step into a management role and show others that you've got it figured out, even when you’re drowning in impostor syndrome? We got you. 

This week, Cailyn’s jumping into the hot seat as TMHTA's resident people manager to spill the tea on how to be a killer boss, whether you're a first-timer or leading a brand-new team. 

So if you’re looking to avoid an Oppenheim Group situation on your team (just steer clear of brokers opens!), tune in as we chat about:

• Dealing with imposter syndrome as a first-time manager
• Setting mutual expectations with your team
• Why it’s essential to delegate as a manager
• The key to helping your team thrive
• How to give constructive feedback 
• Tips for dealing with conflict among employees 
• Finding a mentor or coach to guide you

If you have any burning questions for us and you want to get us in the hotseat, DM or email us your Qs at [email protected] and we’ll dive into them in an upcoming Asking For A Friend.
