What's your biggest leadership development goal for 2025? Mine is to try to give more meaningful feedback to my team. I definitely left them hanging a bit this year and I want to make it up to them.

Don’t give them meaningful feedback if the company isn’t going to let them grow financially personally and professionally. I’ve received very meaningful feedback from managers before and worked on improving myself. The company didn’t have any intentions of promoting anyone or giving anyone decent raises even if they met their goals based on feedback.

I’m not in healthcare. I’m in IT consulting

I'm trying to delegate more. I have a bad habit of doing important things on my own because I know how I want them done and I'm not always great at explaining to other people how to do things in the right way. But obviously it's unsustainable and I'm holding other people back from learning if I don't learn how to delegate.

You better learn how to delegate because you'll lose your job and you will never get promoted. The key is to set the proper goals objectives and measuring tools to monitor their performance. Also, you want them to get better. You'll have to learn different skills like reviewing their work in an effective manner.

It’s giving for profit

I’m guilty if going into problem solving mode, so I want to be better about if someone comes to me with an issue, asking them what they think the solution is (even if if I know/have a solution ready) and working through it together vs me just telling them how to handle it. Basically empowering them.

My biggest goal is to get better about using the word no. I commit to way too many things at work and end up drowning in projects and work which leads to feeling burned out. I need to learn how to say no and not keep takng on extra things to help everyone else.

You better give them mental feedback that's your job. If you're supervised people you need to give them feedback all the time constructive and the point is for them to get better. Don't listen to some of these comments about if they're not gonna get promoted that's just ridiculous. At the very least you're making them better at what they do. Plus whatever they do wrong you do wrong. Never forget that.

Really kind of shocking that management would bring in three pretty conservative speakers.

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time

Hi everyone!

After years of hard work, I just got my first position in a leadership role! Yay! I’ll be leading a team of 12.
I wanted to know if you had any tips for me, things you wish you knew before, or things previous leaders did for/to you that you found admirable or stayed with you. I want to make sure I’m there for them and want to be a leader they will remember positively.

Thank you so much!!

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?
