Starting April 1, my supervisor transitioned to the SIMBA project, and I have taken over her management responsibilities  (mostly – the assistant manager and I are now “co-managing” the department).  The timing of this change was perfect, since it coincides with the PSEL program.  I have been able to put a lot of thought into how I manage the department and interact with my colleagues that I may not have thought about if I wasn’t in PSEL.  Something my manager passed along to me is that management is managing processes, while leadership is managing people.  This may not hold true in every instance, but is definitely an interesting view that I often think about in my new role.
