Leading Your First Team

The problem this course is for

You were good at the work, so you hired people to do more of it. Now half your week is managing, and nobody showed you how.

Hiring, one-to-ones, feedback and the conversations owners put off.

The week you’ll notice it working

A hiring pack, a one-to-one agenda and a delegation map for the next quarter.

That is what you finish with if you do the worksheets as you go. The lessons explain; the worksheets are where your own business goes onto paper.

III · The workbook

What sits in the workbook

Every module ends with a worksheet you download and fill in for your own business. The page drawn here is the shape of the one from module IV, One-to-ones that people look forward to.
