The First 90 Days: Critical Success Strategies for New Leaders

Excellent publication for new leader.

One of the better "How to" Books out there

This book is a must read for anyone starting a new corporate job, especially if you manage people. The recommendations aren't rocket science but they are very useful. Moreover, the book provides an actionable framework that you can actually apply when you start a new role/job. The chapters on assessing the situation, aligning with your boss and evaluating your team are very useful in creating your own 90 day plan. The book is well-written and a quick read...you won't regret the investment!

Very Useful - But where's the resources?

This is a very good book and I would recommend it to anyone taking on a new role. I found it to be clear and has some very useful advice about dealing with your new boss and reports, and what kind of mind-set to adopt. very useful. I gave it only 4 stars however because at the end of the book he touts all the great resources you will find at [...] that you can use and share to get everyone on the same page. Well, there are no resources there that I could find (except to purchase more of his books). I was very disappointed, enough to feel it takes away from the book.

Good resource!

This book gave me a good framework when I started my new job. We all want to have a solid strategy but often fall short. I highly recommend this book to anyone starting in a new organization or moving up in their existing one.
