How New Managers Can Coach Rather Than Solve
from New Manager Conversations with Fexingo: First 90 Days, Managing Former Peers, and Leadership Basics · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna explore the shift from problem-solver to coach that trips up many new managers. Using the case of a former software engineer turned team lead at a mid-size tech company, they break down the 'question-first' approach, the three types of questions every manager should ask, and why solving your team's problems actually slows them down. The episode includes practical examples of redirecting a direct report who brings you a problem, and how to build your team's problem-solving muscle without becoming a bottleneck. Perfect for anyone in their first management role who feels overwhelmed by the volume of issues landing on their desk. #NewManagers #FirstTimeManager #Coaching #Leadership #Management #Careers #ProblemSolving #TeamDevelopment #Delegation #QuestionFirst #ManagerAsCoach #LeadershipBasics #CareerGrowth #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #NewManagerConversations #ManagerTips #CoachingSkills Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
