It Was Just a Tuesday
Well, Nobody Told Me That Part
What New Leaders Need to Hear But Nobody Says
What Experience Teaches You About People, Power, and Leading Through What You Can’t See
For new leaders learning what changes when the title changes—and discovering leadership in the ordinary moments nobody warned them about.
For leaders discovering that bigger responsibility brings more people, more pressure, bigger decisions, and a lot of parts nobody told them about.
Built from real work.
Robin Hawkins has spent 26 years in Learning & Development and leadership, helping people learn, grow, solve problems, and step into work they weren’t always prepared for. The Promotion Gap turns that experience into books, tools, and practical learning leaders and organizations can actually use.
