The First 90 Days

“Joining a new company is akin to an organ transplant—and you’re the new organ. If you’re not thoughtful in adapting to the new situation, you could end up being attacked by the organizational immune system and rejected.”

Michael D Watkins: The First 90 Days

This is an excellent book that navigates many of the mines that are waiting to explode when stepping into a new leadership position. Watkins uses a variety of theory, examples, and practical tools to help the new leader get “up and running” and well positioned to make a valuable contribution within the First 90 Days!
