There is a learning curve when stepping into an administrative position, whether you have been planning the change for years or find yourself asked to replace someone who has left unexpectedly. Two associate deans offer perspectives on things we wish we had known prior to taking on our current position. Some are practical skills that can also be helpful in any faculty position, while others relate to the different perspectives an administrator needs. We also point out some experiences we feel helped set us up for success, which should be available to anyone considering a similar change of career. Our experiences may offer some benefit for individuals considering administrative positions by helping them reflect on what questions to ask themselves while choosing their next career step.
当步入管理岗位时，无论是已经计划多年还是意外接替离职人员，都会有一个学习曲线。两位副院长提供了一些他们在担任目前职务之前希望了解的事情的看法。有些是实用技能，在任何教职员工岗位上也会有所帮助，而有些则与管理者需要的不同视角有关。我们还指出了一些我们认为有助于我们取得成功的经验，这些经验应该可供任何考虑类似职业转变的人参考。我们的经验可能会为考虑管理职位的个人提供一些帮助，帮助他们在选择下一个职业步骤时思考要问自己哪些问题。
