190: Ask Me Anything: Best Practices for First Time People Leaders

Instructions for how to put an Ikea table together? In the manual. How to grow the perfect green beans? In that one gardening Youtube channel you follow. A playbook on how to manage people? Now that’s a bit dicey. Managing teams and leading people does not have to be overwhelming. And in this Q&A episode, Erin gives you her 5-step guide for managing effectively, whether you’re a leadership guru or just getting started. If you’re looking for concrete strategies to let your people know you have their backs no matter what, this is the episode for you.
