5 mistakes to avoid when you are promoted to boss

Por Mauro Libi.- He was promoted in his company.Success!But not only that, it is not any promotion, now is the head of your division or department, then, attention!You have to be prepared to avoid making mistakes that are often incurred by those who are elevated to leadership positions.This new responsibility entails more work, constant learning and improving your professional career.
 

The first thing to understand is that the concept of boss changed and it is no longer the old grumpy despot who from a higher position martyred his workers to fulfill the goals and in the office.The new boss should be broadly communicative and have a great ability to resolve conflicts.But let's see what the five most common mistakes are made by new bosses:

1. Pretending to hide problems is a very common reaction, which is not recommended. The ostrich hides its small head and exposes its large body, don’t do the same thing. The problems must be faced, that is the attitude that a professional must assume.

2. Wanting to introduce yourself as someone who knows you and knows everything is a wrong attitude. Keep it in mind: Smart people don’t exist, so don’t presume to be one because it can go very badly. Lying is not right, so if you don’t know a topic or don’t know how to remedy an issue, acknowledge it and promise to advice on how to do and seek help from the best. Surely, among the members of your team is the answer. Honesty is one of the most admired qualities in a boss.

3. Don’t want or know how to accept criticism. This is very common, because while pretending to know everything, many feel that they are infallible, and infallibility, dear friends, simply doesn’t exist. Not accepting criticism for the work performed, especially when these are constructive, is a big mistake. Professionals should be willing to listen to.

4. Excuses and more excuses. It is a frequent departure from pretending to justify all the performances, especially those that are wrong. Excuses are nothing more than fears. 

5. Lack of initiative. The inability to take initiatives, to become a proactive person, is one of the most blatant mistakes a boss can make. In fact, the directive put it there to the contrary, to decide and deal with the problems. Leaders must create opportunities where others see disadvantages.
