⟩ Are you sure you have management potential?
Yes, I do. In my current role, I'm the most senior and experienced member of the team and, in all but my job title, I'm already undertaking many elements of a management role. The team is highly dependent on me and most of my time is taken up in supporting and managing the teams members so that they are better able to undertake their own roles. I have extremely good working relationships with my team members and seek to extract the best from them while being aware of their individual limitations. I'm also responsible for training and coaching new team members. I consequently feel that now is definitely the right time for me to take a step up to a management-level position - hence my applying for this role within your organisation.
