"When transitioning to management, familiar relationships can complicate the role, making it necessary to balance friendship with performance evaluation."
"Managers gain access to crucial organizational information, creating a divide in knowledge that must be navigated for effective team communication."
Becoming a manager can lead to feelings of isolation as responsibilities shift your relationship with your former peers. This change creates a divide, where you might struggle to maintain the same friendships with your team since you now hold authority. Additionally, as a manager, you have access to information that is not always shared with front-line employees, complicating communication and understanding. Successfully navigating these challenges is essential for effective leadership and team dynamics.
