A survey of more than 4,500 workers and managers by the Chartered Management Institute found that 82% of those who enter management positions have not had proper training. Usually promoted for their skills as a contributor to the team, they are faced with a whole new role to discover. They are often challenged with expectations for ambitious outcomes.
60% of new managers fail within the first 24 months in their new role, according to research from CEB Global.
Consider trying a different approach. Augment your executive leadership & senior leadership's support for these "mid-level leaders" by providing them with external support to improve their chances of success.
