Why good specialists struggle as managers

Nobody teaches a new manager what to say in the first one-on-one, how to give feedback that lands, what to delegate and how to check it, or how to announce a decision people will not like. So each of these is improvised, usually late and under pressure. The team notices. Work comes back up to the manager, meetings multiply, and the best people start looking elsewhere.

What changes after this course

You stop improvising the moments that matter. An agenda for the one-on-one. A script for the feedback. A board that shows who owns what and who is overloaded. A card that turns a goal into a number. A checklist for the tough call and wording for announcing it. Your team gets consistency from you, and you get your time back.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

I have developed leadership training around what managers are expected to do in practice. At iDeals, I designed a leadership development programme and began by explaining the expectations for team leads. I then created a leadership pyramid with different levels and programmes for each level, covering ambitions, values, talents and expertise as well as skills. To teach practical tools, I developed 21 short webinars and started using them to train leaders. That experience informs the management tools in this course.
