Management Success: 5 Reasons Why You Might Struggle As a Manager

Being a manager is easy- right? All you have to do is go around giving orders to others and not doing much work yourself.  When we work alongside a great manager we can easily fall into the trap of believing that it is easy.  Yet in truth managing is often an area where highly competent people struggle.  So what are 5 key reasons why you might struggle as a manager?

Reason 1: You lack self control

Reason 2: You don’t take responsibility

Reason 3: You have a win at all cost mindset

Reason 4: You have gaps in social skills

Reason 5: You don’t have a network

Bottom Line – Managers rarely struggle because they are not technically competent.  It is more often than not about their personal qualities.  So where do you need to develop to achieve success?
