What do new leaders in technology need now? How can you prepare your star performer for a leadership role?
Senior leaders who are struggling with leading teams of technology managers and leaders typically:
- Consider rewarding their star performers with increasing their leadership responsibilities and promoting them to a team leading role.
- These same senior leaders are frustrated that some of their recently promoted technology leaders are now struggling in their new leadership role.
- Some are feeling the pain of firing a technical leader (or the vacancy of a tech leader who has recently quit) because they were unable to succeed in their leadership role.
If you have recently experienced any of these situations, then you probably haven’t given your new technology leader what they need right now.
The problem with filling the role quickly is that you are making a reactive decision rather than a strategic decision.
In today’s podcast, I’ll share an experience from one of my clients who promoted their star performer too quickly and didn’t set their new leader up for success.
