I got a promotion a few weeks ago. I am now a group manager for a business team where I work.
I think thought that this is really a disguise and the description should be "there is a big mess with a team and a process and we need someone to clean it up".
You Can Expect....for your first few weeks/months...
- you will have everyone dump on you about why things are broken
- you will find no-one wants to do anything to fix it
- but they will still moan about how bad it is and how great it was
Glad to be of service! At least I know I'm needed
I also managed to wear myself out so much that my body gave up - along came a cold and 7 days of bedrest! Crazy!
Of course, my compute was in bed with me...and have to say that I have actually managed to achieve a lot this week. Should I stay in bed more often - avoid those meetings that are non-stop on your calendar to "meet".
Emails, IM, and the phone have been absolutely wonderful....especially IM for those "quick, can you get this, are we crazy, why are we still online at 11pm" conversations.
I did officially have my first 11pm meeting last night....not due to any changes in time zones...because we were working late. Crazy!!!!
