About a week ago and a half ago, I found out which team I will be the manager for at work. From what I had heard previously, I assumed it was going to be a newer team that was just formed because of growth within our division. However, a week ago Wednesday, I found out that I was to be the manager of my own team. The previous manager had the opportunity to manage a beta group of counselors and the director team thought it would be natural to slide me into my current team. It will be an interesting
transition from working as a co-worker to now being the manager. I started this on Thursday when I returned from New York and I feel that the
transition is going well. So keep your fingers crossed.
My team is very thoughtful too...we all went out to breakfast a week from Thursday with the old manager and the team got the old manager (Julie) and I flowers and a card. We also took a team picture and they put it in a frame for Julie and me. I am fortunate because I know that most of the counselors
want to be successful and are very hard working!
Here are the flowers and card they got for me...I just wish I was around to enjoy them instead of leaving for NYC that afternoon!
