According to a recent management study by the Corporate Executive Board (now Gartner Inc.),“45% of managers lack confidence to help employees develop the skills they need today.”“85% of new people managers receive no formal training before becoming a new manager.” Have you ever felt that nobody understands what you are going through in your new role?ORHave you felt the need for training support to perform in your new role as a manager but never received it even after having to ask for it?You are at the right place and time if you answer “Yes” to either question above!The objective of writing the Toolbox for First-Time Managers is to provide 11 powerful tools to fill this massive gap between where you are and where you want to be by empowering you with the skillset and mindset for thriving in the new role from individual contributor to star manager which otherwise would have taken years to achieve.The author has trained extensively on the topics mentioned in this book and learned a lot from the participants of his management development programs who were facing the same challenges you are facing now.Hence, this is like a “Talking Book” filled with practical knowledge, real-life examples, stories, case studies, ready-to-use templates and the author’s own experiences, which take you on a thought-provoking journey to becoming the manager that you always wanted to have.Good managers are not always born but can be built by training.Each chapter logically concludes with action exercises to maximise retention and encourage the application of learning.You, the new or aspiring manager, have been constantly kept in mind while writing this book in a simple, easy-to-understand and helpful manner.This book demonstrates “how to” rather than “what to” and contains practical advice rooted in groundbreaking research and years of job-related and business experience.
