My first formal leadership role where I would lead my friends and former peers didn’t go so well. When we ask a group of new leaders about their biggest problems, leading friends and former peers is always one of the most common challenges they mention.

In this episode, David discusses the problems that come from leading friends and former peers and shares seven ways to lead this special group well.
