So I've just been proposed by my (now ex) team leader to be the next team leader. I'm scared to death because this is something completely new to me.

What are your views on the move from development to team leader? How did you handle the transition?

Rely on the (hopefully) smart people around you. If you work on a good team, let the people do what they do best. Don’t try to handle everything on your own, pick your targets and contribute to the most pressing matters.

I also thought by the first part of the sentence a marriage proposal had occurred lol.

@EstrnAdventures haha, I didn't read that sentence properly lol. Thanks for the advice, it's really helpful

Yeah. You are not the Batman anymore

Be open, honest and humble.

Don't assume or think you know it all - ask.l and discuss.

Most important: Listen. Even if you're bored to death or / and want to duck their brain out of their skull, listen.
