I purchased the audiobook when I first got promoted into management. It is aimed at the new CEO. It had some general principles that were good to think about as a new line manager, but I'm not sure it was really worth the money to me. Can you borrow it from your local library instead? :wink:

True, it is focused on the new CEO. However, the ideas are incredibly useful for anyone taking a new leadership role. I used it to great success in my two previous job changes, neither of which were being a CEO. If you are moving up or in to a new, more significant role, then I highly recommend this book.

I live in a very small town, and have a tough time getting books through inter-library loan (They never could fine Watkin's "First 90 Days"). But I might try that.
You're in charge... What Now?
