Hi fellow healthcare mgt nerds,
Ive been in a corporate health system HR role for some years and would like to go for a promotion in the near year and preparing to speak to my boss about it soon. There is a management role open in our dept but I could also push for a "senior" title. I like what I do and like to get my word done well and fast. I do wonder if having "direct reports" is necessary experience for me to continue to progress, whether in HR or other depts (i've worked in recruitment and compensation before). I have no experience directly managing people and I wonder if its going to be more of a hassle than anything. Right now I have full control of my job and how well I deliver, the idea of someone else being in charge of my success/work is a bit uneasy (i have not worked closely with the people i would POTENTIALLY manager if I pushed for the manager role).
Anyone else who has made the transition from a "worker bee" to a manager that has any thoughts or advice on this?
