| Don't confuse the issue, by roaming around telling all your prior co-workers to "not worry" and that "you won't change."
Better, tell them you plan on taking your new role seriously, and that you'll need their help in making sure you do the right things. Remind them of all the ideas "we" had prior to the big move. Above all, this is the time for them to "meet" you as a manager, not simply a co-worker or friend.
