Being a first-time learning leader is no small feat. New leaders struggle with uncertainty and indecision as they venture into uncharted career territory and are asked to make high-stakes decisions daily.

Developing yourself as a new L&D leader can, unfortunately, slip to the bottom of your to-do list when there are other urgent matters to deal with on the job, such as hiring, competing for your organization’s resources, and maybe dealing with your own feelings of inadequacy if you’re struggling with the day-to-day responsibilities of what you thought was your dream job.
