How to Succeed as a Team Leader - Tips & Tools

Introduction

Often people are promoted into the role of team leader because of their technical competence, knowledge and expertise demonstrated in a previous role or simply the length of time in an organisation.

Being newly promoted to a team leader is one of the hardest roles to undertake. You may have pressure from senior leaders, clients as well as your own team members.
