March 20, 2022 Raising the bar on your leadership creates more leaders in the world
Hi Friends!
I'm back with another solo episode on The X Podcast.
Today, I'm talking about the how to develop more leaders in your organization and what is required to do this. More specifically how coaching supports leadership development growth exponentially greater than technical training.
If you are a first time manager, you may need technical training and supervising your department, i.e. submitting payroll records for your team, hiring training, etc.
If you are a manager not new to your role and has career goals for higher levels of advancement, then you need coaching.
Listen to understand the difference and reach out if you have any questions, or would like to pursue coaching with me.
