ADVICE

Map Areas Of Responsibility

  • Map out your areas of responsibility for both the old and new role to know what you will be measured on.
  • Use those areas as the foundation to create handover projects and onboarding projects for the new role.
ADVICE

Capture Projects Before Handover

  • Capture and map all projects with clear next actions before you hand over your old role to avoid things sneaking back into your head.
  • Do a thorough weekly review so you have control and a clear mind during the transition.
ADVICE

Invest In Higher Horizons

  • Invest time in mapping higher horizons: areas of focus and longer-term goals for the new executive role.
  • Ask why you're doing things and where you want to be in three to five years to align work with purpose.
