Manager to Director
What Senior Leaders Look For, How to Build Executive Presence, and How to Set the Tone and Win Trust When You Step Into Your First Director RoleBy Imad Muratspahic
Length3h 26m
About this audiobook
You deliver results, your team respects you, and still the director role goes to someone else. Nobody explains what separates a good manager from someone senior leaders trust with a bigger job. Manager to Director puts the unwritten rules into plain language. It is not a first-time-manager guide and not a pay-negotiation manual: it starts where those end and covers the skills of the next level, from how executive presence is built to how to set the tone and win trust when you inherit a team of managers. Inside, you'll learn: No guarantees, no gimmicks: just a clear picture of the level above you and a practical plan to start working at it.
