From Manager to Leader: Cultivating the Skills for Success

In the realm of business, the terms "manager" and "leader" are often used interchangeably. However, these two roles couldn't be more distinct when it comes to their approach and impact. Managers are primarily task-oriented, focusing on administration, coordination, and implementing systems. On the other hand, leaders are people-oriented, inspiring action, providing support, and fostering a shared sense of purpose. While managers ask themselves how and when, leaders question why. To elevate your career and make the transition from manager to leader, you need to cultivate a set of unique skills and qualities. In this article, we will explore the strategies and mindset shifts required to unlock your leadership potential.

Learning the Ropes: Mastering the Basics of People Management

When you first step into a management position, there's a learning curve associated with adapting to your new role. It's crucial to familiarize yourself with the fundamentals and gain proficiency in managing teams effectively. Once you've acquired the necessary knowledge and skills, it's time to take a step back and reflect on the kind of leader you aspire to be. Understanding your leadership style and envisioning how you can inspire and empower your team will set the stage for your transformation.

From Management to Leadership: A Journey of Growth and Development

Leadership is not solely an innate trait; it can be cultivated and nurtured over time. While some individuals naturally possess leadership qualities, anyone can acquire the necessary skills and attributes to become an exceptional leader. By embodying confidence, honesty, effective communication, delegation skills, creativity, and intuition, you can inspire and motivate those around you to deliver their best work. If you find yourself lacking confidence in taking this transformative step, seek guidance from the top leaders in your organization. You will discover that many of them were not inherently born leaders but rather developed their leadership abilities through experience and self-improvement."

Key Strategies to Foster Your Leadership Growth

Assess Your Current Management Style: To enhance your leadership game, it is crucial to gain a deep understanding of your current management style. Reflect on how you manage your team or department, identify the strengths and weaknesses of your approach, and determine what makes a great leader in your eyes. Additionally, take note of the specific support your team requires to thrive.

Seek Guidance and Support: Don't hesitate to reach out to your manager or the HR department for guidance and support. They can provide valuable advice, mentorship, coaching opportunities, or recommend learning resources tailored to your development as a leader.

Embrace Personality Assessments:Consider taking personality tests such as DiSC or Hogan's Assessment. These assessments provide insights into your behavioral style and help you understand the dynamics within your team. The more you comprehend your own behavioral patterns, the better equipped you will be to lead and collaborate effectively.

Focus on Your Strengths:Rather than trying to imitate someone else's leadership style, concentrate on leveraging your unique strengths. Identify the areas where you excel and find ways to enhance them. Simultaneously, evaluate aspects of your leadership that can benefit from improvement and dedicate efforts to develop those skills.

Invest in Your People:Great leaders prioritize the growth and development of their team members. Evaluate each individual's potential and aspirations and identify ways to nurture their personal and professional growth. Empowering your staff not only contributes to their success but also strengthens your position as an effective leader and benefits the overall organization.

Take Incremental Steps:Leadership growth is a gradual process; you cannot become an instant leader overnight. Instead, focus on continuous self-improvement by working on one aspect of your development at a time. Consider finding a mentor who can provide guidance and serve as a sounding board throughout your journey.

Embrace Feedback:The most effective leaders foster a symbiotic relationship with their team members, creating an environment where feedback flows freely. Seek out feedback from your team and other stakeholders, and approach it with an open mind. Embrace constructive criticism as an opportunity for growth and learning. Reflect on the feedback you receive, identify areas where you can improve, and implement necessary changes. By actively seeking and valuing feedback, you demonstrate your commitment to personal and professional development, which inspires others to do the same.

Unleash Your Leadership Potential

In the world of business, the distinction between managers and leaders is profound. While managers focus on tasks and processes, leaders prioritize people and inspire collective action. Making the transition from manager to leader requires a conscious effort to cultivate essential skills and qualities. By understanding your current management style, seeking guidance and support, taking personality assessments, focusing on your strengths, investing in your team, progressing one step at a time, and embracing feedback, you can unlock your leadership potential. Remember, leadership is not solely reserved for a select few; it is a journey of growth and development that anyone can undertake. As you embark on this transformative journey, keep in mind that leaders are not created overnight. It takes time, dedication, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Embrace the unique qualities and strengths you possess, while also being open to learning from others. By becoming a leader who inspires and empowers those around you, you will not only elevate your own career but also foster a culture of success within your organization. While all managers have the potential to become great leaders, it is through deliberate actions, self-reflection, and a genuine investment in your team that you can truly unleash your leadership potential. So, take the leap, embrace the challenges, and embark on a journey that will transform you into an exceptional leader.

It really is so true that you never know what someone’s going through behind closed doors. I’ve made being gentle and kind my default bc I’ve had super put together friends disclose the most harrowing time of their lives to me and it’s like oh?? You were going through that???? I would’ve never guessed

#It’s easy to reduce people to side characters or caricatures but you never know. You truly never know what someone’s going through or what #Could push them over the edge. Cruelty will never be worth potentially causing someone permanent damage #I’ve realized this after having a conversation w a friend of mine who sailed straight to med school #Tons of leadership roles #Thriving social life #Yet she just told me her hair was falling out from anxiety. Never in a million years would I have guessed that she was struggling #But she was and lots of people play things close to their chest like that #I really wanna be kind each time I can and to also come from a place of compassion #Bc ik I’ve been misunderstood by people before who reduced me to a caricature or just didn’t know what was happening in my life #I want to actively work on extending the benefit of the doubt to the same people I would want to extend the benefit of the doubt to me

raph was never any less suited to leadership than leo

raph was never any less suited to leadership than leo

raph was N E V E R any less suited to leadership than leo

idk how many times i can say it before it sinks in that in rise there was never once any point where that was the point being made

if you just like leo’s character better than you like raph’s, that’s fine! if you just like it better when leo is leader, that’s fine! i have no issue!

but we need to stop trying to circle that leadership change back to somehow being about better or worse or ~more cut out for it~ because it sucks to throw the great job raph did through the series under the bus in order to prop up leo’s good qualities. 

they’re both great leaders. they both have strong suits and weak suits in the role, they both have growth and development when they’re in that role. they BOTH make on-screen mistakes in that role and aren’t very good at it at first! not getting a more in-depth explanation about it in the movie or series stinks and it’s very interesting to explore, but seriously. 

#rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #rottmnt raph #rise raph #like it's so...... #all of raph's growth as a leader and hard work at it was up and down about him growing as a leader #learning and adapting and incorporating things #when raph messes up the point is NEVER 'ohoho see he's just not as good at it or fit for it' #it's ALWAYS him learning something that he does better with next time #and in that vein leo showing those leadership qualities and potential! #is NEVER about 'oh he would be so much better at it than raph' #it's just about leo having that potential and that talent that went unnoticed! #and like. idk what to tell you leo was doing a not great job at start of movie like raph was doing start of series #if the point was always 'raph cant hack it leo was REALLY meant for this all along' then mayhaps... #one of the emotional high points and climaxes of the finale would not have been raph learning one more important lesson #and the team then fully unlocking the ninpo and rising to their potential #it probably would have been a finale arc about leo stepping up specifically in some way #and all this of course i say having put aside that leadership was never meant to be a big deal in rise anyway.... #pitting 2 bad bitches against each other like this for no reason like they're not both fantastic

I got an ask that I'm working on a reply for, and it got me thinking about the OOT map and how based on the map alone and not my headcanons, Gerudo Valley is the only place without many things, but most notably it's without a throne room for its leader.

Other fans have probably already thought about this but I haven't so I'm feeling very John Mulaney Home Alone about it, forgive me if it's old news! But I thought about it this morning so I'm gonna talk about it today!

Every other civilization throughout Hyrule has a distinct area where you can find their leader, but in OoT, Gerudo Valley doesn't. There's no place that, had circumstances been different, you would be able to go and speak to Ganondorf in his own domain.

Except, maybe there is.

Maybe the room that you find Nabooru in -- the one standing between you and Twinrova -- Is Ganondorf's throne room. He's in Hyrule at the time and Nabooru, as second in command (whether that was true before her brainwashing or not), is the defacto (or performative, at this point) leader in Gerudo Valley while he's away. It makes sense (to me) that she would be sitting in his chair while she's filling his role.

In the post I haven't posted yet I'm gonna talk about how the Gerudo in OoT are not a prosperous people, not even Ganondorf wears gold -- only Nabooru, Twinrova, and some of the elites wear gold-looking metals as both jewelry and armor, which most likely means they're brass or pale bronze (if we're being realistic, of course).

So it also makes a lot of sense that a room like this isn't highly decorated -- neither is any other space in Gerudo Valley (or actually, anywhere outside of Hyrule). But it is an exclusive hidden chamber in a sacred temple, and Ganondorf is, in OoT text, "Worshipped" by the Gerudo, "Almost like a god," which means -- yeah, his throne probably would be in the temple itself.

So a throne situated in the head of the goddess statue (protecting your hella-magic elderly moms), with a right and left hand guarding sacred artifacts of your people, also makes a lot of sense to me. As does the idea that in order for a Hylian to try and assassinate their king (say, during wartime), they would have to get across the desert first just to try and find him vulnerable. A Hylian cannot do that without a magic lens (or a spiritual sense, like the dude on the carpet).

It also makes sense that he'd use it for a hideout for the same reasons. If it's where he sleeps anyway, that's just an extra level of convenience.

Anyway! That's my headcanon nugget for today. Again, probably already discussed in the fandom. I haven't read about the temple being home to anyone but Twinrova, so I wanted to point out the idea that it's highly likely to be Gan's house too!

#lozhc #oot eidolon #like considering the kingship is so potentially widely gapped -- it would make sense to have three ranked elites in those rooms instead of #something special or specific made for a king or queen #esp since Twinrova probably takes over leadership roles between Kings anyway in this era -- considering she is 300+ years old #and is/was potentially high-ranking in her fused form based on her appearance/placement in the temple #And is again the only (in oot) magic-user in Gerudo Valley -- she's herself probably a pretty exalted person regardless of who's ruling

Didn't get to smoke before work this morning (also not at all confident I took my meds) and while I'm managing the immense stress of the day (hello three new projects) rather well I'm reminded that the ritual of a spliff and a cup of coffee does in fact help keep my teeth dull and my temper subdued

#asked my fellow hiring committee members one of whom is my supervisor if i was really the only person who liked one candidate #and was blatantly honest that I think the issue at hand is the ego/insecurities of the man who oversees this role/department #and we have to toe the line of choosing someone good for the job and who wont be bullied by him/clash with him 24/7 #and id been shocked that i was the only one who saw potential in one or two candidates and ultimately i think it's due #to the fact im less willing to let the supervisors insecurities/ego play a role in this. and i said as much #and the response was a laugh and 'well shit everyone duck for cover he might hear us james is getting nasty ' #and I'm not really im just tired of pretending like that isnt the core of the issue here. his ego has been wounded for the whole o last yeat #*year and now he's continuously making it everyone else's problem and whomever gets this role with be the Andy to his Miranda #except he has so little to offer in terms of real guidance i feel. hes going to bully and boast and be petty to whomever gets chosen #but any attempt to say that to leadership will get waved away ultimately because he's leadership and he's fought to get his own admin #so rather than get someone with a diverse and varied skill set who can match him in work and intensity #we'll end up with some kid who probably cant set boundaries and will get steamrolled completely #so yeah im irritated by the whole process. and my lack of meds today is making it hard to play nice about it

peeta will lie with the straightest face on the national tv about his unrequited love's pregnancy not consulting it with a single person in his PR, damage management team, and the love interest beforehand, and I love him for that. this is the ideal I want to aspire to.

#nothing important #catching fire #a straight As student lying through their teeth constantly is another beloved type of mine #though I keep forgetting they exist #I hate the ending of that book tho #hate the hostage/captivity situations in books #though I love that Katniss was like Yes they all want to save peeta bc of his leadership potential #while everybody was scrambling to keep him alive so that she wouldn't bite their heads off instead of cooperating in the future #sidenote I did feel I was too old for that level of blindness as to what's been going on around her with the rebellion plot in this book #which left me mildly frustrated with her but it was still enjoyable

how would you talk CS lewis into trans acceptance? just wondering because this is theoretically the coolest concept i can think of

ok buckle up.

In my experience it is not actually all that difficult to convince someone who is christian but holds the character of god to be of higher importance than a strict historical literalism view of the Bible that sex and gender are different. This is because it’s blatantly true and people who are of that persuasion are more likely to be able to comprehend blatantly true things, and much more empathetic to the experiences of others ie. listening to a trans person’s life story.

We know that cs Lewis did not hold a strict fundamentalist view of the historical literalism of the Bible, as he was open to the idea of evolution as a process guided by God (this forces you to interpret the creation story as somewhat allegorical, which yknow. It is. because it’s made up.) in fact historically it’s very rare for people to actually hold this view strictly in the way that we see today from conservative evangelicals. Even Martin Luther, their main guy, thought the epistle of James kinda sucked and wasn’t really right.

from sex & gender are different it’s a short hop to gender as a social construct - something these people usually understand due to renegotiating biblical views of women wearing head coverings or not wearing any jewellery. from there it’s sometimes possible - not always, but sometimes - to get them to understand that a person may experience incongruous sex and gender, and that this is resolved by living as a different gender to the one they were originally assigned based on sex.

The important thing to note to them at this point is that this does not erase their previous experience of living socially as their assigned gender, nor are they so deluded as to believe it magically makes them cisgender. At this point the analogy of biological father vs adoptive father is very useful, both being real fathers and indeed reflections of God the Father.

You can also raise to them “why is God depicted as male if he’s not a human?” and put to them the idea that people choosing their gender presentation is a reflection of God’s image in them - existing in a created state while still creating their mode of identity using the soul and spirit he gave them. Didn’t Paul change his name from Saul when he gave his life to Christ? In some ways, a gender transition can be seen as a transformation gifted to that person by God, the same way God gifts all of us with transitions throughout our lives, from child to adult, mother to grandmother, condemned to redeemed, hopeless to hopeful.

Then you can say that this is just another choice God puts before all of us: whether to marry, what job to get, what church to attend, what gender will you live as. And in all choices, as in all things, a person may glorify God. Thus if a person is trans, their identity is no different to any other chosen or re-formed identity, and we can love them by understanding that, respecting it, and protecting them as a sibling in Christ.

Idk maybe it’s crazy, and there are points along this that many Christians would fight against for many reasons. Most of those reasons though are sheer conservatism and an unwillingness to allow minor scriptures to be understood as culturally rooted. If that’s someone’s position then they are always being unequal with how they choose to renegotiate scriptural relevance ie. they are choosing to be transphobic because they just want to be, and you are going to get nowhere with them.

But cs Lewis was a kind man, who valued camaraderie and joviality and rebirth and love. I know he’s dead so it’s irrelevant. But I like to believe he could’ve been a hashtag ally.

#sorry for the long post #but yeah if someone is willing to budge on certain topics then it’s possible to get them to budge on trans people #in my experience the most relevant topics are: evolution [believing it’s real] #women in church leadership [wanting them in there] #and dealing openly and heavily with abuse in the church [strict protection policies and identifying potential offenders then removing them] #it’s not guaranteed and if they don’t respect and love you there’s probably no chance #but these people usually want to love and understand others. and trans people are capable of being loved and understood #edit: want to be clear btw. im not a Christian I just think that Christians don’t have to be transphobes and also I know too much about it

so I was looking up the tenets for lolth’s paladins and I found this little list. not sure how canon exactly this is but I thought it was interesting -

kind of laughing that shri’iia does the exact opposite in act 1 which leads to her oath breaking. she girlflopped so badly lolth decides to drop her ass then prob hunt her ass down for being an embarrassment and a failure. like girly was not exerting her power at all - it’s her first time in the surface ever and she’s surrounded by people who could literally kill her any given moment (considering all the stories she heard abt how surface dwellers hates drow) not to mention that the tieflings you encounter when you see lae’zel were ready to attack you that just fueled her paranoia. > she was not sowing discord at all she was laying low and keeping her mouth shut …!! she has no allies here! and she doesn’t know where she is! and there’s an illithid tadpole in her head! it would be foolish of her to paint herself as an enemy when she’s already so out of her environment so she keeps her mouth shut … thoughts to herself … bides her time and sees who’s useful to her and who’s not … she can always get rid of the ones that she doesn’t need later but for now she’s seeing what she can work with first …… > have a plan… shri’iia had no plans…. at all. she was following lae’zel around because the crèche was her only lead … but then they mentioned a druid named halsin who’s a very good healer so she turned her objective to that … then a goblin mentions their priestess is a healer too so guess she’s looking for her as well… honestly who thought making the drow who’s never been to the surface and literally does not know where she is or what she's doing the leader of the group a good idea….. in my hc the leader is gale

#but I’m like 🤭🤭🤭 at the idea of shri’iia being considered an embarrassment by Lolth just bc apparently lolth paladins are pretty rare #like she doesn’t give her blessings easily and they mostly go to her clerics but to a paladin … and for someone who’s not noble birth too…. #like she had potential ..!! she was mentored by a matriarch of a noble house ..!! but then she flopped soo badly 😭😭 #and I hc mid/the end of act 1 she still hasn’t accepted that she’s an oathbreaker and she’s still delusional thinking that she can get #lolth’s favour again it’s like no 💗 girly. she hates your ass 💓 if you ever return to menzoberranzan she’ll turn you into a drider probably #and it’s only in act 2 where she accepts that she is an Oathbreaker. and she does Not need Lolth. and Lolth doesn’t deserve her (delusion) #but I love that idea for her bc she was So proud of herself … and she devoted herself to her goddess to the point that her sense of self is #essentially Gone.. but then she gets rejected. so now the thing she’s most proud of is taken away from her #by HER own actions no less .. like she can’t blame anyone bc it’s her own fault ..!! and that’s what stings more ..!!!!! she’s the one who #fumbled the bag … so it’s like where do u go when the very thing you dedicated your whole life to rejected you #and you’re so far away from home. and you CAN’T even go back home.. where do you go. no choice but to keep going…. #then she eventually accepts the role as an oath breaker bc it's the only thing she has left. her oath no longer binds her ; every choice #she makes is hers and hers alone.. which is so ..!! girls when you're faced to reclaim your own agency or else you'll fall into the void #you're left with ...!!!!!!! also it is so perfect bc the oathbreaker dialogues are all abt freedom and agency of self. #being free from dogma and making your own decisions! and you also want others to be free too … #and the fact that the oath breaker knight helps you make that decision I hc she becomes similar to him as well #where if someone chooses they want to be free she will help them … but it has to be their own choice … #which ties in perfectly with the act 2 and 3 quests esp for the companions .. all abt making ur own decisions … #so the leadership role goes from gale then to her … #should be heading to bed bc I have an early start tomorrow but hrk head filled w thoughts of my oc... #but act 1 shri'iia is essentially her getting such a bad grade at being Lolth-Sworn Drow that lolth disowns her 😭 #im so ill at the thought of her not being able to return to menzo tho ... i dont think the underdark is safe for her either like she should #b getting hunted like sport .... maybe thats why she released the vampire spawns down there lol #like <3 revenge. everyone loves revenge especially an ex oath of vengeance girly <3

ok i've been feeling under the weather (chronic, not covid) and i've been binge watching warrior cats infodumps/video essays and.... hhhhhh do I REALLY want to reread half the series to make a post about my leopardstar apologism?? becuse girlie deserved better and if she was written better she'd be everyone's favorite literal wet cat pathetic girlfail girlboss tragic character but nope. got vriska'd but like in a 'shallow without redeeming qualities' kinda way

#like ok let me go down the list of my unorganized opinions about her #<<long tags. also edit i talk about pokemon paul too i guess #this is barely even canon commentary because in canon she was a bitch who died of diabetes. this is me exploring her canon potential #first off. i just like her unique pattern #and i'm a riverclan stan #second. orphan who was raised by the village and adored and doted on #would inevitably lead to her feeling like she had to fulfill those expectations and setting high goals for herself #AND SHE REACHES THEM!!!!! she is motivated and strong and determined #but she's also iirc pretty young as a leader but age in wc is more of a crapshoot than even pokemon which. yikes lol #so. very young leader who has high expectations on her and also high expectations of herself #desperate to prove herself #and so. strong and iirc described as handsome tom comes along and manipulates her into joining his new megaclan #SHE IS YOUNG AND WANTS TO DO WHAT'S BEST #FOR HER CLAN #also tigerstar is like. top manipulator supreme. apologism and all but leopardstar was a victim idc #that turns out to be. you know. bad. tiger is trying to kill her clanmates which she did NOT sign off on #so she has to deal with that SUPER EARLY in her leadership #so we come out of arc 1 with a new leader who's seen more in her first like what. year. than many leaders do in a long time #so after joining tigerclan of COURSE riverclan secludes themselves more #it's a protective measure!!!!! #riverclan is going THROUGH it in series 1 #and ngl i barely remember the rest of the series with ehr because they kinda forget she exists #except to have her go crazy and die #which. hm. a choice. #but wc is known for their. choices. of the odd variety. #and for ignoring character potential #i dub this the paul problem (pokemon). #where they will not commit to making a character a true villain OR to redeeming them #and isntead just placing them in 'annoying bitch who is just kinda eh' territory for the msot part #i do like paul do not get me wrong. i could fix him

watching taxi driver but what i am actually seeing is the elaborate alternate version im constructing in my head where lucifer has to escort sam through hell in order to save bela, who didn't deserve the fate she got, and sam is so filled with hope that he can right this wrong and complete the trial and then when they get there she's a demon <3

#'escorts' thats what lucifer intends to do anyway but it turns out that hell Likes sam #hell wants to be what sam wants. it will shape itself for him. #sam wants hallways and easy to find souls? sam is getting hallways and easy to find souls #and cages of course. sam expects cages. so there are cages. #anyway. cue lucifer getting increasingly upset that hell is out of his control. because it isn't fully in sam's either. #meaning they're both in a pretty vulnerable position. lucifer less so he could break out of this pit. not the cage but regular hell? easy. #but sam could get snagged on something on the way out. torn to bits. eaten alive. and lucifer doesn't want that. #anyway back to bela. they do find her. she's long since turned to a demon. it's a way of survival down here and she survives #and she doesn't fucking want sam to help her. in her own words she'd say how she's nearly clawed her way out of the pit herself #that sam wants to take her deeper in to take her out and fuck that she's almost made it on her own #and add to that that a demon aint going to heaven. so now what. #(well now is the time for arguing and sam being like We Don't Have Time And I Can't Leave You Behind Without Being Broken By Guilt. #lucifer (not helpful): what if i just catch her and drag her out. || Sam & Bela: NO. #i do think bela accompanies them out i think she sees that she has to #(forgot to mention. bobby is not in hell in this au. because we don't need him to save.) #anyway my point MY POINT is. they still need to save Someone. and sam's like. who am i supposed to find. #the answer is jake talley btw. who has not broken to hell in all this time. and is quite despised by the current leadership. #(also. down the bloodline to be a potential lucifer vessel. so when lucifer sees him he goes <3 hiiiii.) #and all four of them dig their way out of the pit. jake goes to heaven. he and sam have A Moment. #and bela is like cool :) thanks :) now fuck off and leave me alone i hate you die and goes to do demon shit #idk. thoughts.
