What challenges do you anticipate in this Learning Director role? How will you meet those challenges?

"I anticipate a few challenges in this new role, but I do feel that they are all manageable. One of them is the size and structure of the training department. I manage five supervisors in my current role, with four of them reporting in the same office as I am, plus a field supervisor for our direct sales team. Having to manage double the number of supervisors and many of them located in different regions will surely need a lot of getting used to. Still, I have proven ways of rallying large teams and leading them towards one vision. On a related note, there is also the challenge of dedicating my time between different locations. In my experience, no matter how strong the larger organization's culture is, every office will have its own quirks. I plan to get myself acclimatized gradually by having open discussions with the training team, as well as cross-functionally at each location if given the opportunity to work for the company."
