I had heard that the Manager Tools podcast won best podcast in the People’s Choice category in this years Podcast Awards. Being a new manager, I decided I should check it out. Boy, am I glad I did!

If you are a new manager like me you must listen to at least a few of the episodes. Even if you are, as they say, an “individual contributor,” you would benefit from the education. They cover topics including decision making, professional etiquette, interviewing, and even packing for business travel. I’ve only had the opportunity to listen to a few but will be working my way through their Manager Tools “Basics” which represent their best of geared for new managers as well as hilights of their library of episodes.
