Background on Chat: Leading Former Peers

Many people hope they will get promoted at work. They even feel good when others get promoted into leadership positions because they believe it can happen to them as well. Yet, when their peer becomes their leader they aren’t so happy. Why? Well the shift causes many things to change and creates many concerns as well. Leading your former peers is a challenge for everyone involved. So, please come join us in in our weekly global #PeopleSkillsChat this SUN. Feb. 20, 10am EST on Twitter to explore leading former peers.
