Developing Managers and Leaders

I spent the last two months reading articles, finding videos, and reading books about leadership development. I was surprised with what I found.

45% of managers report they did not receive formal training to manage people or develop strategy.

How can we have so many people striving to advance, yet we don’t have a good system to ensure we are developing good managers and leaders?

This video covers development strategies mixed with my own personal experiences and thoughts.

How long you should wait to respond to manager’s email?

I have been having conversations with friends and co-workers about the appropriate amount of time to respond to a manager’s email.

Some people say a week, others say 24-48 hours, and some say within a few hours. The urgency factor also comes into play as not all requests are created equal.

This video is about level-setting my own expectations and coming to terms with my management style. Do I have reasonable timelines or not?

I did some google research and even asked ChatGPT.

Watch the video and let me know your thoughts on what is a reasonable response window.
