He or she is a competent and skilled employee. Thumbs up. You have got the skills to be a great manager. You are promoted. You are in charge of other people irrespective of the title that you will assume whether a team leader, supervisor or manager.

Do you know how to manage people?

The good news is that you can’t manage people or even lead them. People yearn for inspiration. You inspire and empower people not manage them.

Do you know how to inspire people?
How to unleash their potential?
How to defend them in times of layoffs and crises?

If the answer is almost no, how on earth, you have been promoted. People are looking for your captainship and the only thing you know on the ship is just to bark orders and check time sheets.

Congratulations! You have been crowned a manager.
