As a leader, you’re probably already very aware that your team is diverse. Or at least it should be! Diverse teams that are made up of lots of different people and work personality types can be key to generating ideas, designing effective and efficient processes, and really driving results.

As a new manager, you’ve probably realised one very important thing: that you’re not only in charge of managing ‘down’ the organisational hierarchy, but also ‘up’ to the board. Without a solid board reporting framework, this creates a whole new challenge for those moving up the ranks. Throw in the fact that many executives are now working from home, and it comes as little surprise to learn that finding ways to communicate with the c-suite is now more challenging than ever.

When moving into a new management position, there are always some leadership and management challenges that you’ll need to face head-on in order to succeed. It’s a natural part of transitioning from being ‘one of the guys’ to holding a more authoritative position. However, for those managers making this transition post-2020, there are a whole new set of leadership and management challenges that are likely to pop up. The global pandemic has changed the commercial landscape - possibly forever - and tackling the new challenges today may be the key to preparing for the future of work.
