Highlighting the Differences Between Being a Manager and Being a Leader
One of the key themes in the articles on leadership I read last month concerned the differences between managers and leaders and the different skills required for each of these roles.
Several other articles covered the skills that new managers need to make an effective transition from being excellent Individual Contributors to becoming good supervisors, team leaders and managers. I will be providing tips for making this transition effectively in a public webinar later this month (details below).
The links to the best articles on leadership and leadership skills from last month have now been added to the Recommended Leadership articles page of the Caliente Leadership website.
Here are the articles I found most interesting last month:

Webinar for New Managers and Supervisors
May 20 – How to Transition Effectively Into Your New Manager, Leader, or Supervisor Role 12Noon (US Central time) $38
Over 60% of all new supervisors and managers fail to make an effective transition from being an Individual Contributor to their new managerial and leadership roles. Transitioning from a successful Individual Contributor role into a supervisory or manager position is fraught with challenges, concerns, and worries.
This is a profound change that requires a new skill set to be successful. It also comes with high risks of failure, personal dissatisfaction, team disenchantment, and team member disengagement. In today’s flatter organizational structures, new managers must handle and juggle ever-increasing responsibilities, while also coping with greater interpersonal conflicts and team members who are frequently less than highly engaged. Despite these challenges, mid-level leaders and first-time managers remain “the glue between strategy and execution.”
This program provides tips on overcoming their new challenges, leading execution, and producing results.
