Being a manager involves achieving results to meet the specific, tangible and financial objectives of our organization. Controlling systems and processes is therefore vital. Good management also requires good leadership, which focuses on gaining respect and fostering motivation. Making this happen is all about recognising that people can be influenced to perform better. So this involves much more than just the allocation of work. Instead, it’s about creating and developing a motivated and skilled team. Your success depends on others, so it’s really important to get people management skills right. Becoming a manager will inevitably involve personal change. The extent of this will depend on whether you are being promoted within your organization or are moving to a new one. But whatever the situation, even seasoned managers will benefit from personal development. If you are being promoted, it’s important to create distance between yourself and others in your professional relationships. So never allow existing friendships to interfere with the effective performance of your role. This can sometimes be difficult to adjust to and requires careful handling, especially if you are still part of your previous team, but your new role is to now lead it. If so, it may be useful to reflect on things like participation in future social events. It needn’t be a case of withdrawing, but rather just being aware of how involved it is appropriate to be, as you need to act as a suitable role model for your team.
