How to be an effective program manager 🙌🏼 Leadership in STEM 🙏 Getting out of the way ‼️
In this episode, I share from my recent experiences as program manager and what I learned. Being in a leadership position is very different from being an individual contributor and I think it’s good to strike a balance of having both aspects on separate projects if that is important to you. In leadership, the primary focus is to serve the team and do what is right for the team and performance of the projects and often times if things are going well your main job is to get out of the way! Develop and maintain trust. Don’t micromanage and remember to communicate the right amount: not too much nor too little! Hope the conversation helps to go over how to do this!!!
