Krish is sensing a lack of direction and eagerly waiting for his new manager to join.
His last manager Mary moved on a month back. Due to COVID, his organisation wants to give sometime before the hiring of a new person.
Krish has a lot of ideas to run with, but he is holding himself back; he wants the new manager to come on board soon.
As a coach, I had one questions for Krish.
"Krish, what is stopping you from taking a portion or full of your manager's role and moving up?"
Krish, like many others, thinks he is not ready.
Here are four things that I have learned over the years.
You will never be fully ready for a next-level role; there is no perfect moment.
Opportunities would not wait for your readiness to knock at your doors; don't miss the big ones that come your way.
Unless you go out and play the game, you would never know what it takes to play.
Start believing and behaving as if you are already in your next role; even before a formal transition. People should see you ready for that position.
My professional growth maximised every time I captured some of the space created by the exit of my boss.
Keep you learnability quotient high if you wish to grow well.
