First-Time Management · The First 90 Days as a Manager
Becoming a manager is not the same job with a new title.
Being good at your own work does not automatically teach you delegation, feedback, or people leadership.

Frequently asked questions
No. The program works for anyone in their first two years of people leadership, including those who inherited a team without any handover.
Six sessions, usually over eight to twelve weeks, so that each tool is used in real situations between sessions.
It is a structured mentoring program that combines practical frameworks, direct recommendations, and work on your real management situations.
That comes up often. It is part of the work: how you communicate upwards is a first-time manager skill like any other.
