Great tips for a first time manager. I agree it is so important to also ask your team what their expectations are with regards to having you as their new manager.
Awesome! Thank you! I also have a 45 min webinar that I think will benefit your PMs and Managers as well. In this free training I walk you through the five key items needed on all projects, it's what I call the FAB FIVE FUNDAMENTALS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT. The FAB FIVE are the 5 key items that you must do on every project - if you only do 5 things, these are them! It’s a great way to simplify projects, while still doing the essentials needed to ensure project success.

This video is my first referral to learning to become a good manager and I am loving it. Thanks for the awesome content. Can you also make a video on what shouldn't be done by a first-time manager?
I feel like I’m slowly but surely developing into a managed and although I believe I have what it takes to go far in my career, I’m also afraid of being a bad manager who isn’t liked by the team and doesn’t bring results. Maybe it’s not a good mantra but I keep on telling myself that there are so many really bad managers out there who have years of management experience that in the end, I’m probably too hard on myself with my own expectations of excellence. Off course everyone wants to nail the first management job but it’s really an experiment 😅
Thank you for sharing. If you believe in your skills then try to take yourself into a more positive mindset. No one gets everything right the first time but that is how we grow if we take the time to learn from out mistakes. You've got this and I wish you great success as you more forward in your life and career. Thanks for watching, cheers!
1. Prepare : managing is different than doing tasks. HR, policies, culture, continuous education for yourself : EQ, team dynamics, 2. Know from your own manager how they want you to operate and expect what 3. Know your team : strengths and weaknesses 4. Find a mentor ; to bounce off ideas and situations
I like the idea of power hour. I am a soon to be a closing manager. And most of my important tasks are done at the end of day. Telling my employees that they have to step it up at the end of the day, so I can do those things will be easier with this catchphrase.
Killer video on first-time manager tips!! Total different skill sets. My husband has purposely not advanced because he doesn't like what's involved in becoming a manager. He's a true sales guy and didn't want to push paper in his industry.
Good advice. Id suggest that in general first time Managers should use good talking, listening and observing skills to try and understand their staff as individuals and as a team/group. Read organisational policy and guidance documents (an organisational intranet can be helpful here) and pay particular attention to those policies that apply to managers and/or staff. Build or maintain a positive working environment for your staff - this may take time but it is essential if you want to help your staff succeed and achieve their best.
I like the way you presented this information. I'm all about purpose, direction and motivation. A question I have is what are some ideas for those of us eager to start our first managerial role when we have had huge gaps in employment to acquire a career as a manager?
2:49 "Can you give me insight on some individuals?" I like that What are some other questions a project manager can ask to get to know their team whether speaking to a manager or team in a non-management role? What advice might you have for project managers with introverted characteristics?
So glad you like the video. I have lots of other videos on team building which could be a nice and fun way to get to know your team better. When you get to know someone just don’t stick to what they do, ask them about their family, hobbies and other things that are important to them. Get to know the person, not just their role. Regarding your last question…introvert or extrovert…just be prepared, have everything your team needs and set them up for success. Thanks for watching. Cheers!
I have worked at my job for a year, the manager we had just up and quit, so i was pretty much pushed into the role, and then my GM ended up putting me as the manager, so its all new to me
I'm starting a job in a couple weeks in a retail environment. Clothing. However, I havent really managed people before, at least not in a retail setting. I'm a little nervous because I have to learn how to do the job, at the same time I'll be taking on managerial duties. So how do I manage people, when I am brand new and I don't quite know the job yet????
Hi @MattArchey, congratulations on your new job! Although this may seem a little daunting you need to just take it a day at a time. This is a lot to learn but hopefully you will have assistance as you learn the role. Lean on those in an assistant managerial position and never hesitate to ask questions or for help. You've got this! Wishing you all the best. Cheers!
I am great at a lot of things, but I don't think managing employees is my forte- I had people working for me , and I was sucky ! Great Tips for us beginners !
i am 24 debating on accepting an offer for the manager role at the gym im employed at. my current manager is going to be moving to another state on short notice due to some.. personal life complications. she offered me the role. im a cleaner right now, mind you, i love this gym. i pour myself into how i clean and i work my ass off. i just have never been in a manager role. i dont have to worry about any employees because it was just me and her, small gym. i am currently in school, no degree, and ive never believed in myself to accept higher up roles.. this time is different. i want to do it, but i am so terrified of fucking up or not walking in my bosses footsteps.. she did amazing work here. she said she would train me in 2 weeks before she leaves, but what if im not good enough? what if i ruin the gym?
Hi Morgan. The first thing you need to do is muster up that confidence. It already sounds like you are a dedicated, hard working individual so why would that change taking on a new position, just something to think about :) I believe you've got this and will do wonderful things for the gym. Wishing you all the best and hope that 2023 unfolds perfectly for you. Cheers!

Once you implement the power hour you will never go back. It is definitely life changing! Thanks for watching and wishing you all the best. Cheers!
