Becoming a good manager is a lot like learning to ride a bike.
At first, you may need training wheels and lots of support.
You'll probably pick up a few bruises as you test your balance and independence.
And after lots of practice, you'll be flying along on your own, still finding some bumpy roads but much more equipped to handle them.
If you're a first-time manager, here are a few suggestions to help you refine your leadership skills:
--Even if you don't feel like the boss, act like one. Don't let employees or your boss see you sweat.
Accept that you will make mistakes.
--Don't try to make friends at first.
That will come later.
Establish your authority by making decisions, including unpopular ones, and sticking to them.
