Jamal Whitfield
🇺🇸Team management and the first year of leading people
- 20 años de experiencia
Twenty years in industry in Boston, twelve of them running teams from ten to eighty people in healthcare operations. These days I coach managers, and particularly the ones who were just promoted and are discovering that the job they were good at is no longer the job. That transition is the worst-prepared moment in professional life. You promote the strongest technician, teach them nothing, and then act surprised when they keep doing their team's work instead of leading it. Everything I do is concrete: the difficult conversation you have scheduled for Thursday, the recurring meeting that serves no purpose, the person you have been avoiding for three months. I work in English and French. My French comes from my mother's family in Haiti and it holds up fine in a working conversation.

Lo que le distingue
We start from the conversation you have been putting off. It is nearly always the thing blocking everything else, and handling it in one session moves more than six months of leadership reading.
