SUMMARY:Career Compass: Navigating your First Leadership Role
DESCRIPTION:Stepping into leadership for the first time can feel exciting\, overwhelming\, and unexpectedly complex—especially when yesterday’s peers become today’s direct reports. \n \nJoin this interactive webinar designed for new urban forestry managers and accidental leaders where we will tackle the real-world challenges of leading people\, creating accountability\, and uplifting team morale. Through practical strategies and honest discussion\, we’ll explore how to set clear expectations\, navigate difficult conversations with empathy\, delegate effectively\, and build credibility as a leader. \n  \nLeadership is more than managing tasks—it’s managing energy\, communication\, and culture. In a profession shaped by public service\, emergencies\, seasonal demands\, and constant problem-solving\, maintaining morale and preventing burnout are essential leadership skills. This session will address the key challenges many new managers face but rarely receive training for\, including giving constructive feedback\, managing conflict within teams\, prioritizing competing demands\, and learning how to shift from “doing the work” to leading the people doing the work. \nWhether you recently stepped into a supervisory role or found yourself leading without formal training\, this session will provide practical tools\, relatable insights\, and actionable strategies you can immediately apply to your work. Join the conversation and gain the confidence to lead your team with clarity\, resilience\, and purpose. \nAt the end of the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nDevelop strategies for transitioning from peer to supervisor while building accountability and team cohesion.\nApply practical leadership tools for communication\, delegation\, conflict management\, and setting expectations.\nIdentify approaches for sustaining team morale\, managing personal energy\, and preventing leadership burnout in demanding urban forestry environments.\n\nApproved for one ISA CEU \nRegister here!
