We've all heard the saying, "It's lonely at the top." It's even lonelier in the middle. 😣

• You've been responsible for your own well being and performance 
• Now you're responsible for the well being and performance of others 
• You'll constantly be faced with other people's problems 
• You won't control many of the unpopular decisions that impact your team - you're just the messenger 
• You'll have to motivate people doing mundane tasks over and over

Why this matters - Many managers are called to lead former peers and co-workers. That places you smack dab in the middle.
