Once You Become the Boss, You're Not One of Them Any More

 

If you're new to management, this could be the most important letter you read all year . . .

 

 

 

Dear Manager,

 

 

See if this sounds familiar...

 

You worked hard to got promoted.

 

Suddenly, the people who used to be your peers are now your subordinates.

 

You're firm, fair, and consistent.

You try to be their “friend”.

 

But as soon as you have to correct one, they accuse you of letting your promotion go to your head.

 

 

Deadly Sin of Management #1

 

 

You're not “friends ”— you're only people bound by a paycheck.

 

In a true friendship, people are equals.

 

But in management, you have a clear Superior-Subordinate relationship.

 

You're responsible for your employees, just like with your kids.

 

This is why trying to be your employees' friend is the first of the 7 Deadly Sins of Management managers make.

 

That's why I created How to Excel as a First Time Supervisor .

 

In it, I'll show you how to redefine the new dynamics in your new relationships, and set healthy boundaries that your employees recognize and respect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“The most valuable lesson I learned from this program was that I should not be expected to justify every direction I give. When I keep the phrase Glenn gave me in mind, I give direction with more authority and my staff actually gives me what I want !”

Deadly Sin of Management #2



Which one of these job titles most accurately describes your position?

 

 

           A.   Manager

 

           B.   Supervisor

 

           C.   Both

 

 

Here's the problem for you. Your title may not match up with your job.

 

Assuming your company has given you the right title is the second  Deadly Sin of Management, and it sets you up for failure.

 

So in How to Excel as a First Time Supervisor, I'll show you:
 

  • The real (and considerable) difference between supervising and managing and why understanding which one your company really wants you to do can save you from failure

     

  • Why terms like immediate supervisor and front line supervisorare ridiculous and what to do if your job title doesn't really match your job duties

     

  • Which jobs a supervisor can do better than anyone else in the organization including middle and upper management

     

  • The one thing that defines a true manager – and how to get the support he or she must have to succeed





     

“In a public entity where tenure rules, I've used Glenn's training to better manage 43 employees in my major area of supervision and 7 additional employees in other programs. Perhaps most helpful was the conflict management training and ways to solve personnel problems without grievance and mediation procedures.”

Deadly Sin of Management #3

 

 

If this hasn't happened to you yet, it will.

 

You're going to have to fire that single mom who's struggling to feed 3 kids.

 

Her deadbeat ex-husband hasn't paid a dime of child support in years.

 

You're "throwing her out on the street" in a job market with nearly 10% unemployment.

 

And now your other employees think you're Heartless”.

 

They say, "You must have ice water running through your veins!"

 

They ask how you can sleep at night.

 

But what they don't know is that you gave this woman 37 warnings to get herself to work on time, and she chose to ignore all of them.

 

 

 

“Since attending Glenn's seminar, I’ve changed my whole approach to hiring & firing employees. In short, I have grown my backbone. In my office hangs one of Glenn's quotes. It reads

 

'Don't marry someone you intend to change, or hire people you intend to fix.'

 

Thank you Glenn for making me a better more decisive owner & making our organization stronger!”

You know you did the right thing.

 

Still, you're human.

 

You feel guilt.

 

And sympathy.

 

Even if you don't realize it, those emotions affect your decisions. And that's the third "Deadly Sin of Management”.

 

I'm not saying you should be a robot. But you have to learn how to put those emotions in their proper place.

 

When you do, you'll enjoy FAR MORE success. And, experience FAR LESS stress.

 

I'll show you exactly how to do this in How to Excel as a First Time Supervisor .

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I was brand new to management when I attended Glenn's seminar. I have since applied what he taught, and, boy have things improved around here! I was able to identify problem employees and take the necessary action. My life at the office has improved exponentially since. Thanks for all your help!!!”
