You’re the link between vision and action. By supporting the essential work of your team, you directly influence the success of your company. Good leaders are not born—they’re made. Lean on company resources to get the training, mentorship and support you need to become an effective leader.
Become more credible and more accountable
Team leaders exist in a difficult space, pulled in multiple directions and faced with competing demands. You may even be shut out of key decisions that affect your group. If you’re faced with unclear or changing expectations—or tasked with hitting vague or moving targets—take steps to clarify and define. You’ll gain credibility through your accountability.
