Managers are constantly on the move, often into complex and challenging situations. But between 25% and 40%(1,2) of managers in new positions don’t meet expectations. The resulting costs and missed opportunities are enormous. The first 100 days are critical for the success of a new leader. You need managers that are productive, integrated and accepted as quickly as possible.
Countdown 100 gives your managers everything they need to reach top speed while avoiding the risk of staff de-motivation, loss of focus and the newbie boss syndrome.
They will:
• Be comfortable with their new function
• Have a network of key stakeholders within the organisation
• Understand the expectations and involve senior management
• Have a vision for their organization
• Be able to engage with their teams.
Countdown 100 is a unique coaching programme that offers high-level performance guidance to leaders in transition. So companies can be sure that their new leaders hit their top speed quickly.
‘‘My Countdown100 coaching was a great experience. It fully responded to what I needed to reach top speed in my new position very quickly, while feeling confident about my future’’.
