Moving into a Leadership Role for the first time is daunting. The move is often a transition from a highly successful tenure in a specialist role to leading a team for the first time. We offer transition support for newly appointed managers to accelerate their growth.
36% feel unprepared for the people management aspects of their new role, yet they control 70% of team engagement.
New managers face a critical transition period where they must quickly establish credibility while navigating unfamiliar territory:
- Suffering from imposter syndrome and navigating their first 100 days successfully
- Managing stress, extra responsibilities and new expectations
- Lacking confidence and unsure who to ask for help and support
- Building new stakeholder relationships and fostering team development
The stakes are high: research shows that 4 out of 10 newly appointed leaders struggle within the first 18 months without proper support. Yet organisations need their new managers to hit the ground running, often without the internal capacity to provide dedicated coaching and mentoring.
Newly Appointed Manager Transition Coaching to accelerate confidence and competence quickly in role.
Our coaching program supports new managers through their critical first 100 days and beyond, focusing on:
- Accelerating personal development and building authentic leadership presence
- Strengthening decision-making capability under pressure
- Developing people management skills that drive team engagement
- Building confidence to navigate challenges and seek support when needed
- Establishing stakeholder relationships and creating early wins
Investing in the right coach at this pivotal transition point delivers significant return on investment—transforming uncertain new managers into confident, capable leaders who can drive team performance from day one.
