MANAGEx (11)

Most new managers aren’t failing.

 They’re just never trained.

You were promoted because you performed.

But leadership is a completely different skill set.

Suddenly you’re responsible for:

• People who used to be your peers
• Results you no longer control directly
• Conversations you were never taught how to have

MANAGEx installs the leadership behaviors most managers never learn. 


MANAGEx equips new managers with the skills to build trust, set expectations, and drive performance through people.

✔ 6 LIVE leadership classes

✔ Led by XINNIX Founder Casey “Blade” Cunningham

✔ Built for new and emerging managers


Reserve Your Seat

Seats are intentionally limited so every manager can participate live.

 If You’re a New Manager, You’ve Probably Experienced This 

Your team only performs when you're watching

Conversations about performance feel uncomfortable

You’re unsure how hard to push vs support

Expectations aren’t always clear

You’re still doing too much yourself
 

These aren’t personal failures.

They’re leadership skills that most people were never taught.

MANAGEx was built to fix that.

MANAGEx: The Foundational Leadership System for New Managers 

MANAGEx teaches the essential leadership skills every manager needs to move from individual contributor to confident leader.

Through six live online sessions, you’ll learn how to lead people, build trust, set expectations, and drive performance through your team.

This is not theory.

It’s the practical leadership architecture used by high-performing organizations to develop managers who produce results.

Hi [Leader’s Name],

I wanted to run something by you.

I’ve been thinking about the shift from producing to leading, and I can feel the difference. What made me successful before isn’t the same thing that will make the team successful now.


I’m realizing I need a stronger framework around how I lead people, not just how I perform personally.


I came across a program called MANAGEx from XINNIX that focuses on exactly that.

It’s built around setting expectations, building accountability, and creating consistent performance across a team.


Here’s the link:
https://info.xinnix.com/managex-march


What stood out to me is how practical it is. It’s how to actually run a team day to day.


If I can improve how I lead, it will directly impact team production and consistency.


Would you be open to me going through this?


I believe it would help me step into this role the right way.

Hi [Leader’s Name],


I wanted to get ahead of something.


As I look toward stepping into a leadership role, I don’t want to walk into it unprepared. I’ve seen how challenging that transition can be, especially when someone is strong individually but hasn’t been trained to lead a team.


I’d rather build the right foundation now.


I found a program called MANAGEx that focuses on the core fundamentals of leadership. Things like setting clear expectations, driving accountability, and managing performance the right way.


Here’s the link:
https://info.xinnix.com/managex-march


My goal is to step into leadership ready to create consistency and results, not spend months figuring it out.


Would you be open to supporting this as part of my development?


I think it positions me to contribute at a higher level right away.

Hi [Leader’s Name],

I want to be honest about something.


I feel like I’m working hard to keep the team moving, but the results aren’t as consistent as they should be. I find myself repeating things, stepping in too often, and carrying more than I should.


That tells me there’s a gap in how I’m leading, not just how the team is performing.


I found a program called MANAGEx that focuses on fixing exactly that. It’s built around creating clarity, accountability, and consistent performance across a team.


Here’s the link: https://info.xinnix.com/managex-march


This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing it better.


If I can improve how I set expectations and manage performance, I believe it will take pressure off and improve results across the board.


Would you be open to me going through this?


I want to solve this the right way.

Hi [Leader’s Name],


I wanted to bring something to your attention that I believe could directly impact team performance.


I’ve been evaluating where we have the biggest opportunity, and a lot of it comes down to consistency, accountability, and how we’re managing performance day to day.


I found a program called MANAGEx that focuses specifically on those areas.


Here’s the link:
 https://info.xinnix.com/managex-march


The reason I’m bringing this to you is because the outcome isn’t just development. It’s better production.


Stronger expectations, clearer accountability, and more consistent execution across the team.


It’s a short-term investment that can improve how the team operates long-term.


Would you be open to discussing this?


I believe it’s a smart investment in both leadership and results.
