When your confidence is growing and you feel like you’re on an upward trajectory and then, among glowing feedback, your manager tells you he thinks you’re still a bit lost. How do you handle that?
In this episode we hear from Valeria, an associate director at one of the world’s best known management consultancies, who’s four months back from maternity leave.
We talk about how to spend the early weeks back from leave:
- The importance of taking the time to understand what’s changed where you work
- Stakeholder mapping
- How to rebuild relationships
- The power of seeing yourself as a fresh pair of eyes
- How to handle the wobbles induced by a manager telling you he thinks you’re still a bit lost.
