I gained a promotion this time last year. (For context I work in a school.)
This September has seen more line management and department duties which I was happy to take on.
The team (which was well established) have not taken this well.
I also think I am making mistakes and I can't seem to catch a break on top of my teaching work load.
I'm having to have difficult conversations with staff regarding inconsistencies in the department and I'm rubbing people up the wrong way. I've literally just gone round and "tidied up" things. I've not asked people to do anything that is not already in their job description. I've been mindful not to add to workload and I've tried to consider feelings along the way and facilitate as much as possible.
It's an awful feeling. I know they are talking about me. Some are rude outwardly in meetings.
I always thought I could hold my own but I am sinking and I'm just doing a shit job.
Any top tips?
