This book, The First 90 Days - Critical Success strategies for New Leaders at All Levels, by Michael Watkins, was listed on the recommended reading list in the past but seems to have been removed. I found it a very helpful book following my promotion.
This book helps you assess the current state of the organization - Realignment, Start-Up, Sustaining Success and Turn-Around - and then provides a game plan, aligned to the situation, that you can follow for the first 90 days.
Very helpful.

The First 90 Days
Hmmm.... it that was intentional, I'd sure like to understand why. I also found it to be a great resource.
Yes! It's a great book.
It's a good book, I buy it for folks when I promote them into a managment position.

I just ordered it and plan to use it as a resource.
The First 90 Days
I just finished this. I thought it was tremendously useful. It's one of the few books I've read recently that made me want to take notes so I could make sure I did not lose any important points.
Neff/Citrin's book "You're in Charge - Now What."
Hi!
I'm thinking of reading "The First 90 Days" book for my new job. However, as I was reading its reviews on Amazon, I came across the following one:
"I bought "The First 90 days" by Michael Watkins and Neff/Citrin's book titled "You're in Charge - Now What." I found Neff's book to be a stronger and more practical guide. Both offered excellent guidance however Neff & Citrin produced a more interesting and readable (less text-book like) book with real life examples and a road map."
Has anybody read this Neff/Citrin's book? Any comparisions with "The First 90 days"? Given the time at hand I can probably read only one of these two books ... Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks!
