Growing into Leadership

Yesterday you were a team member. Today, you're the boss! It's exciting, but it can also feel a bit awkward, right? Can you still joke around with everyone in the break room, or do you need to adopt a more professional demeanor? Where are the lines of professionalism drawn now that you're the boss? Transitioning from being a peer to becoming a manager can be tricky. Team dynamics will change, and there will likely be some growing pains as you navigate your new role.
