First Time Manager Advice for Emerging Leaders | Neal Anderson

What happens when a great individual performer gets promoted and suddenly has people reporting to them? Many young professionals step into their first management role with no leadership training and end up floundering. Greg Aden and Neal Anderson of CARTO Leadership talk about what a first time manager actually needs to lead people well.

In this conversation: - Why being good at a skill, like sales, does not make someone ready to manage people - What generative leadership means: leadership that multiplies more leaders - How two mentors shaped Neal, and why showing up with real questions opens the door to learning - Neal's advice to young leaders: be intentional with your time, learn to lead up, and be patient in the process

Neal Anderson, CARTO Leadership, focused on the needs and development of emerging leaders for over 15 years: https://linkedin.com/in/neal-anderson-phd
