It's Wednesday. You became team leader on Monday.
Three peoplewant an answer.
Whose call is each one? Drag it to a circle, or tap it, then tap a circle.
Every workplace draws these lines differently. Your manager's answer is the one that counts.
Good at the job? Here's the next one.
You were good at your job. Now your job includes helping other people do theirs. PromotedNext gives you practical guidance for the conversations, decisions and responsibilities that come with the role.
Nobody hands you a manual with the promotion.
Sound familiar? Pick one, and see what you could say.
When someone jokes about it, you could say:
“I'm still having smoko with you. I've just got a few more things to look after now.”
From Lesson 1, From teammate to team leader
When you get the team together, you could say:
“I wanted to take a few minutes to explain what I'll be looking after, so we're all clear.”
From Lesson 3, Tell your team how you'll lead
When you don't know yet, you could say:
“I need to check who's able to approve that. I'll update you by 2 pm.”
From Lesson 2, Clarify what you can decide
From "what's going on" to "here's what I'll do".
Every lesson climbs the same seven steps. Each takes 10–15 minutes and ends with something to try at work. Pick a step to see it in the sample lesson.
