First busy season and I’ve struggled more than I thought I would but also I genuinely believe my Senior has not been very helpful from a teaching perspective. Has anyone dealt with this? Advice?

I have. My senior was stressed for deadlines with other clients, understandable. For 1 example. I asked for help and to walk me through M3 one good time because I could never balance it. He always replied to things “don’t worry about that, I will fix it”. 🙄. So here I am. I was able to balance 1 or 2 at the end by looking at years of PY, but I just think it was luck

Well that’s better than “I’m not sure, send it to the client...” and that’s not really the problem, it’s that it happens alll the time. So then it’s up to me to schedule client calls without really having an understanding of what I’m working on

Evening! Dog owners who live in condo rentals downtown.. did you tell your landlord you had a dog? I’m in a rental with a lease that says no pets (i’m sure a common clause?) and i didn’t have any pets moving in. 6 months in, i got a puppy lol. I don’t want to invite potential conflict by updating my landlord, my lawyer partner says the no pets clause is void in toronto anyway - but I worry about a bad landlord reference if they find out i.e come for repairs.

How does one most effectively make the transition into management from an Individual Contributor?

I've been an individual contributor for 4 years in Tech, have 8 years of experience total. I'm finding it difficult to make the management transition despite having management experience, performing beyond expectations, and having a genuine passion for enablement and development.

I'd appreciate any success stories or pointers you can offer in regards to this transition.
