Clark Quinn (http://blog.learnlets.com/) suggests that you develop them the way that you would like to be developed as a new manager
…there’s an attitude change and major skill set development as well. The attitude change has to be one of moving from being a colleague and perhaps friend to being a respected manager. There’re a whole bunch of associated skills including comprehending business drivers, aligning and measuring performance, inspiring (versus just motivating), coaching, etc.
So what can you do to support them?
- Let them listen to some folks who were in the situation and learned lessons,
- Have them explore their own views of management and compare to other views,
- Provide them with principles and safe practice, and then scaffold that practice over time while providing them with a community for support.
- Practice what you preach, inspiring them, coaching their performance, basically modeling the behavior you would want them to adopt.
