Hi there! I’m a newbie to fish bowl 🙂 so I’ve been approached for a management position at my current hospital that I’ve been at for about 3 yr. I’m currently in a coordinator position with my MSA (specialized in healthcare admin). This will be my first opportunity at an actual management role. I’m excited for it and also nervous. I know it shouldn’t be this way - but I know that my current boss is going to L O S E I T when I approach her about this. Advice?
