123: From Marketing Expert to People Manager: Building Confidence in Your New Role

Description

They promoted you because you were great at marketing. Now you spend zero time doing marketing and all your time managing marketers. Welcome to one most confusing transitions of your career.

You went from being confident in your marketing skills to feeling like you're winging it every day as a people manager. Different game, different skills, same determination to be a high performing marketer.

If you're feeling like you traded expertise for confusion, this episode is your roadmap back to confidence.

In this episode, I'm tackling the four sentences that crush new managers' confidence:

  • "My designer knows more about design than I ever will"
  • "What if my team asks me a question and I don't know the answer?"
  • "How can I do all of my work and be a great manager?"
  • "How and what do I give feedback on?"

This isn't about becoming perfect at people management overnight, it's about building authentic confidence in your new role while you're still figuring it out.

Perfect for: Newly promoted marketing managers, experienced marketers struggling with the people management transition, and anyone who feels like they're faking it as a leader.
