I'm a Supervisor...Now What?: A Practical Guide to the First Year of Leadership Paperback with Workbook

$25.00

Becoming a supervisor doesn’t come with a manual.

One day you’re part of the crew. The next day, you’re responsible for decisions, conversations, and outcomes that didn’t used to belong to you. The pressure changes. The relationships change. And most new supervisors are left to figure it out alone.

I’m a Supervisor… Now What? is a practical, honest guide for people navigating their first year of leadership. It doesn’t rely on buzzwords, theories, or motivational clichés. Instead, it addresses the real challenges supervisors face every day—authority, accountability, difficult conversations, stress, and the shift from doing the work to leading the work.

This book walks through:

  • The shock of promotion and loss of peer status

  • Why authority isn’t about volume or control

  • How to handle your first real mistake

  • Conversations supervisors can’t avoid

  • Why consistency matters more than charisma

  • Leading people instead of doing everything yourself

  • Managing pressure and carrying responsibility without burning out

Written from real-world experience, this book is for supervisors who want to lead with clarity, fairness, and steadiness—without pretending they have all the answers.

If you’re learning the role while already in it, this book is for you.
