In this course section, we will explore the metamodel and structure of this course, which consists of four elements: mindset, skillset, toolset, and feelset.
Focussing on these four elements will help you in your transition from being an individual contributor to a first-time manager, as well as to be a more effective leader in general.
This course section will explore the concept of mindset and its various components, specifically beliefs, values, and role awareness.
By the end of this section, you will have a deeper understanding of mindset and how it impacts our thoughts and actions.
This section aims to help you understand what positive leadership skills are.
Creating a positive work climate where team members feel valued and supported is essential as a leader. Building positive relationships helps you understand your team members' different needs. Communicating negative messages in a positive way allows you to get your message across. And by providing meaning and purpose, you can motivate and inspire your team members and encourage them to work collaboratively towards our shared objectives.
In this section, you'll learn essential tools that every manager needs to know. These include personal time management (setting priorities, delegation, etc.), effective communication (e.g., one-on-one and team meetings), performance management (goal-setting, performance review, development), decision-making, and creating a sustainable team culture.
This section will discuss your shift from being an individual contributor to a team leader. It will examine the various emotions that might arise during this transition. The focus is on understanding your emotions and those of your team members who were previously your peers. Managing former peers can be a challenging experience, as you may encounter conflicts or difficulties while taking on this new role. However, by employing approaches that emphasize emotional intelligence and humility, you can navigate this transition with confidence and achieve success.
