New managers hired from outside wish they'd been promoted internally. Internal promotions wish they'd been hired fresh. Both feel disrespected either way. The trap dissolves when you apply the right frameworks.
There's a curious thing about both of you lot. The ones that have only just been recruited always say, "Oh, I really wish that I'd worked my way up through the team and that I got to know them, and then they'd just respect me a little bit more." But then the ones that work their way up through the team always say, "I just wish I was brand new recruited, then they wouldn't know me, and then they'd respect me just a little bit more." Either way, I think we'd agree management can be hard, but it can also be easy with the right frameworks.
