From Technical Expert to Leader... And Feeling Like You’re Drowning?

In so many businesses, technical brilliance is rewarded with... leadership.

You’re an incredible engineer, agent, therapist or specialist? Great! Now manage a team. Lead people. Set the vision. Motivate, inspire, coach and develop.

Don't get me wrong, I don't see any issue with this growth path, but rather that too many technically brilliant people are left to figure leadership out alone, expected to just know how to lead (or at best given a book or a generic course and told ‘this will help’... though leadership isn’t one-size-fits-all).

When this happens, it creates 2 big challenges:

1. Leaders who feel out of their depth, battling imposter syndrome and second-guessing every decision... spending more time swirling in uncertainty than actually leading
2. Disengaged teams who don’t feel truly supported because their leader, despite being brilliant, isn’t confident in leading people in their own way

Imagine how much easier and more rewarding leadership would feel if you were confidently leading in a way that felt natural to you.

At Reimagine Consulting, we help leaders find their authentic way of leading, so it feels natural, effective and a whole lot less like hard work.
