  • 162: How to nail leading a team outside your area of expertise
    2025/01/21

    Ever found yourself managing a team where you don't have direct experience in their field? I've been there, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be. In Episode 162 of Managing Made Simple, I'm sharing one of the biggest mistakes I see managers make in this situation: downplaying their own expertise.

    It might seem humble, but trust me, this can seriously backfire. Your team needs a confident leader, someone who can guide them and provide support.

    I'll share some practical tips on how to effectively lead a team outside your area of expertise, including how to acknowledge your limitations without diminishing your value, how to leverage your strengths, and how to be a connector who gets your team the support they need. Plus, I'll share a personal story about the time I had to manage an engineer (with zero engineering background!) and what I learned from that experience.

    🎙️ Key Takeaways:

    [0:00] Intro: The challenge of managing outside your expertise.
    [1:17] The common mistake managers make in this situation.
    [3:25] How to lead with humility and credibility.
    [6:05] A personal story of managing an engineer as a program manager.
    [9:45] Final tips for building trust and confidence as a leader.

  • 161: The real reason people are quitting your team... and how to stop it
    2025/01/14

    Ever had a boss who made you dread coming to work? It happens more than we like to admit. But here’s the good news: Being a great manager isn’t about being perfect. It’s about creating an environment where your team feels supported, valued, and motivated to give their best.

    In Episode 161 of Managing Made Simple, I’m sharing three habits that can unknowingly push team members away—and how to turn them into strategies that build trust, engagement, and retention:

    1. Doing instead of delegating: Learn how to empower your team by letting go of control.
    2. Telling instead of asking: Build trust and accountability through thoughtful questions.
    3. Criticizing instead of recognizing: Discover why frequent appreciation leads to stronger, more confident teams.

    These small shifts can make a big difference in how your team sees you—and how they show up every day.

    Key takeaways from this episode:
    [0:00] Intro: Why people leave managers, not jobs
    [1:30] Doing instead of delegating: How to let go and empower your team
    [4:50] Telling instead of asking: The art of coaching and thoughtful questions
    [7:20] Criticizing instead of recognizing: Why appreciation is essential for growth
