From Colleague to Manager – Learning to Lead with Terry Black

Episode 36: Terry Black of Visavie

Terry Black, Regional Manager with Visavie, started her career as a Senior Living Advisor nearly four years ago. As the company grew, she felt the desire to move into a leadership role. Now she oversees other senior living advisors and helps them to grow their clientele, while running the operations of the company.

In her new role, she is learning to navigate the transition from being a colleague to a manager, and she is also learning how to improve communication while providing support to her team.
