You've just been promoted and find yourself questioning your
ability to pull off the new job. Now what? Virtually every leader
recalls that "make or break" promotion when success depends on
accessing inner capacities that lie just beyond prior experience.
Taking on new challenges and responsibilities as a manager can be
one of the most exhilarating and rewarding transitions in a
businessperson's career. It can also be fraught with stress,
self-doubt, isolation, and frustration. Bob Gunn and Betsy
Gullickson draw on decades of executive coaching and human resource
consulting experience to characterize the process of management
promotion as walking the high wire-venturing into the unknown
without a safety net. More often than not, managers are tapped for
their functional knowledge and expertise; rarely are they trained
in the subtle art of managing and motivating people while
delivering bottom-line results. In this highly accessible guide,
Gunn and Gullickson address the challenges and opportunities
head-on and offer specific strategies and tactics for navigating
the transition into leadership, delegation, conflict management,
motivation, project management, and problem solving. At the heart
of the book is the notion that productive and fulfilling management
is not simply a collection of skills and techniques, but a mindset.
Illustrating this theme through many powerful first-hand examples,
the authors guide you toward achieving the clarity of vision and
purpose that comes from being aware of context, attuned to the
feelings that influence behavior, and respectful of multiple points
of view. Featuring thought-provoking questions and a listing of
helpful resources, On the High Wire willengage and inspire new
managers to become even more creative and effective leaders.
