New Leader

The new leader

From new in the role to confident in your direction – without losing yourself along the way.

It can feel like being thrown into open waters: You’re new to the leadership role. Expectations are high. The pace is intense. And suddenly, it’s no longer just about your own performance – it’s about helping others succeed.

At HEXES, we support new leaders in finding their footing, strengthening their presence, and achieving results with their team – without falling into classic traps like excessive control, decision paralysis, or tangled relationships.

We make it concrete – not complicated

We don’t roll out theories for the sake of theory. We start where you are – and build practical leadership that works in your reality.

Here’s how we help new leaders:
• Clarify the role – What does it actually mean to be a leader here? And what shouldn’t you take responsibility for?
• Strengthen your leadership compass – We help you set direction, make decisions, and navigate competing demands.
• Train you in communication and leadership dialogue – From 1:1 conversations to standing strong in front of your team.
• Equip you with tools for leading people – Motivation, feedback, conflict, collaboration, and difficult conversations.
• Offer sparring, coaching, and clear feedback – So you’re not on your own and can grow quickly and sustainably.
• Get you up and running fast – We don’t just talk about it. We practise it, test it, and follow up.

A simple leadership tool – with big impact

When we work with new leaders, we often use this simple reflection format – because it works:

  • 1 thing to stop doing E.g. trying to fix everything yourself – instead of activating your people.
  • 2 things to continue doing What you’re already doing well – maybe your curiosity, your ability to listen, your overview.
  • 3 things to start doing E.g. setting a clearer direction, practising feedback, or having the difficult conversations early.

It’s not rocket science. But it does take awareness, courage, and feedback. And that’s exactly what we help you gain – and put to use.

Workshops

Our approach to workshops is that there must be action followed by implementation and delegation of responsibilities. 

We work concretely and agreement-based

This means that we are not finished until there are concrete agreements on the white board - WHAT will we do, WHEN will we do it and WHO will do it.

Implementing changes in behaviour and culture takes time. Creating cohesion takes time and never stops. And there are no short cuts. It requires psychological safety, prioritisation, commitment and consistency to be able to deliver on the common goals. Organisations, leaders and teams can learn (and if they know them in advance, become better at) those competencies, and thus deliver optimally on the common result.

Therefore, it pays off in both the long and the short term to prioritise a focused effort on development and behaviour.
