What Nobody Tells You About Leadership: ...

Kara Ronin
About this episode

When you land in a leadership position, there will be a number of things that surprise you. Things that you may not be aware of. Things you may not have prepared yourself for. The power shift can take people by surprise. Other times jealousy can unsettle emerging leaders. And then there are issues of office politics and higher expectations that you’ll need to get used to. 


Many emerging leader dive into leadership completely unaware of these changes. But by listening to this episode, you’ll be one step ahead of them! You’ll not only be aware of what secrets await you, you’ll also have some guidance on how to deal with them. This episode is for emerging leaders who want to better prepare themselves for everything leadership will throw at them. 


In this episode, I talk about

  • the responsibility burden,
  • the power shift,
  • jealousy from former peers,
  • office politics,
  • higher expectations, and
  • networking etiquette.
