378: Great at the Job. Terrible at Leading. Now What?

from Stacking Your Team | Leadership Advisor for Women Entrepreneurs

Have you ever promoted someone who was amazing in their job, only to watch them flounder in a leadership role? I've seen the heartbreak (and the headaches) that come from putting the wrong person in charge, and I want to help you avoid this costly mistake.   Join me as I unpack why high performance doesn't always equal leadership success, share real-life stories of promotions gone wrong, and offer practical strategies to spot the warning signs early. I'll walk you through how to have compassionate, honest conversations and what to do if you need to make a leadership course correction, without burning bridges. Plus, I have a free resource to help you quickly determine if your next potential leader is truly ready for the responsibility!  Work with Shelli Warren: Book a call with Shelli to talk about how coaching can help you elevate your leadership capability.
