New(er)-to-Management Roundtable
07:30 AM - 09:30 AM Central Standard Time
Join us for a facilitated discussion on this important topic at The Freehouse (701 N Washington Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55101).
The transition from a technical expert within an organization to a management position can be the most challenging shift of a career. Making the switch requires learning new skills and comes with new challenges.
Join fellow WTS members for a facilitated discussion (with breakout groups) to share knowledge and build community amongst newer managers. The event will start with a general discussion about the challenges and opportunities of being in a management role and the often tricky transition from a technical (hard skills) role within an organization to management (soft skills).
Breakout sessions will be on specific challenges such as building supervisory relationships with former co-workers, sharing tools for understanding both you and your employee's working styles, and balancing new management responsibilities with current work expectations. This event is designed for professionals who have been in a management role for 5 years or less and will be limited to 25 participants to help keep groups small and ensure opportunity to share experiences.
