The NAB Leadership Foundation’s goal of the First- Time Manager series e-course is to offer new managers the transitional elements to move from an individual contributor to a manager mindset. The elements included within the modules offer solutions to help managers make an effective transition while learning new behaviors to help with their team’s development as well as their own.

Each of the courses in this program includes:

• Case scenarios with the broadcast industry in mind
• Knowledge checks
• Resources for further reading

• Distinguish differences between the efforts of an individual contributor and a leader
• Begin the process of changing their mindset to become more comfortable in their new role
• Identify tasks that would be better suited for delegation
• Apply specific skills to better communicate with upper management and create a collaborative environment, for increased, effective dialogue about changes within the organization
