Becoming a manager has lost its appeal, but what if the problem is less the job than carrying it alone?
Creating the conditions for performance, helping everyone grow, looking after well-being, giving meaning: four huge responsibilities, crushing for anyone who carries them alone, energizing for a team that shares them. This module shows you how to share each one, at a time when teams are getting larger and AI is changing the rules.
