The Story
In "The Making of a Manager", Julie Zhuo, a seasoned tech executive, recounts her transformative journey from a novice to a competent leader. At just 25, she found herself thrust into a managerial role, a leap that felt like winning a golden ticket until the reality of her new responsibilities set in. With little prior experience in management, Zhuo navigates the complexities of leading a team where her colleagues suddenly became her subordinates.
Through a series of relatable anecdotes, she shares her struggles, including the daunting decisions of hiring, providing feedback, and fostering a productive team environment. Zhuo’s candid reflection on her early missteps and successes offers invaluable insights into the art of management, emphasising that leadership is a skill that can be cultivated with practice and self-awareness.
