Episode 30: Celebrate good times
You've got the promotion and you go out to celebrate with your team, who are also your friends. But on Monday you'll be managing them. How does it change what happens when you're out socialising? Are you still 'one of the gang' or should you step aside now? How do they see you - and how do you see yourself? And if you're responsible for organising social events for work it can be fraught with difficulty. How do you please everyone? Can people opt in or out without feeling judged or excluded? How much are people obliged to attend, spending their own time and money on something work-related but outside work hours? We give tried and tested advice so you don't need to suffer the hangovers of getting it seriously wrong.Find out more about how to handle the responsibility of helping employees have a good time, hopefully without next-day regrets at www.theaccidentalmanager.com. That's where you'll find the 5-minute noodles which help you to manage yourself and others to have the best day at work you can possibly have.FINAL NOTE: This is the last of our podcasts - 2 series over 2 years of sharing, confessing and celebrating our accidental successes, failures, odd and crazy experiences.
