Good guide on how to deal with transitions in an executive career。 While this book is mainly targeting senior leaders or CEOs， the principles are applicable to anyone who is planning to transition into any leadership position （supervisory level）。The book gives specific advice on a wide variety of topics such as leading your former peers， how to prepare for international assignments， how to properly approach a turnaround and realignment business situations 。。。

This book is basically a literal copy/paste of sections from "The First 90 Days" into chapters focused on the type of transition you are making， being promoted， leading former peers， joining a new organization， moving to a new country， among others。 If you read The First 90 Days there's not much gained from reading this book。 However for my next move I will likely reach for this book as it does usefully put all the critical detail on the type of transition in one place。 This book is basically a literal copy/paste of sections from "The First 90 Days" into chapters focused on the type of transition you are making， being promoted， leading former peers， joining a new organization， moving to a new country， among others。 If you read The First 90 Days there's not much gained from reading this book。 However for my next move I will likely reach for this book as it does usefully put all the critical detail on the type of transition in one place。 。。。more

Occasionally fun to read， sometimes painfully slow。 I did not check for certain， but based on my recollection of The First 90 Days from reading it about a year ago， some sentences， paragraphs， or even larger sections appear to be verbatim lifted from that book。

A very concise and clear book on 7 basic transition types， the core skills needed， biggest challenges you might encounter and some ways to avoid or prevent them。 The author acknowledges that in reality transitions are not so clearcut and you might find yourself in a mix of situations， and he stresses the importance of identifying and really clearly defining the type of challenges you need to address in your new role for the business， but also the ways in which you yourself need to adapt and the A very concise and clear book on 7 basic transition types， the core skills needed， biggest challenges you might encounter and some ways to avoid or prevent them。 The author acknowledges that in reality transitions are not so clearcut and you might find yourself in a mix of situations， and he stresses the importance of identifying and really clearly defining the type of challenges you need to address in your new role for the business， but also the ways in which you yourself need to adapt and the skills that will make you successful in this new particular situation。 。。。more

“The political manoeuvring she had encountered at headquarters was dispiriting; so was the lack of support from former colleagues。 She was left wondering if she had the patience and finesse to navigate the politics of her new role”Not what I was expecting after reading and loving 90 days so much， but still an important book。 Some great frameworks presented for managing success at the highest levels of an organization。 Loved some of the ideas like the analogy of an organizational immune system （d “The political manoeuvring she had encountered at headquarters was dispiriting; so was the lack of support from former colleagues。 She was left wondering if she had the patience and finesse to navigate the politics of her new role”Not what I was expecting after reading and loving 90 days so much， but still an important book。 Some great frameworks presented for managing success at the highest levels of an organization。 Loved some of the ideas like the analogy of an organizational immune system （don’t set it off - develop a vaccine！） the three Rs （recognize recover recalibrate） and the FOGLAMP approach to project planning （Focus， Oversight， Goals， Leadership， Abilities， Means， Process）。 And the essential discussions on culture， politics and influence that appear in all of these books。。。 。。。more

If you found value in the The First 90 Days， you will find value here as well。 Though The First 90 Days was strong and actionable， this is definitely your refresher course as well as your playbook。 Watkins walks through specific examples with what went well and what went wrong， that help understand your upcoming challenges as a transitioning leader。 Provided as well are many worksheets and tools for getting a grip on your current or upcoming situation。

This book has seriously been one of the best books I have read in a while。 It is very thought provoking and the perfect read for anyone （planning on） transitioning。 I love the way each chapter ends with a practical checklist that really is applicable in your professional live， how it is structured， and the clarifying figures throughout the book。 Another gem in the Harvard Business Review collection。
