Why you should read Assimilating New Leaders

Organizations spend vast amounts of time, money and energy to recruit and hire top executives. Then those same companies let these new valuable employees sink or swim totally on their own. A new receptionist is likely to receive more attention than a new division manager, as author Diane Downey explains. Despite its jargon-laden title, this enlightening book will change the way you think about hiring or being hired. getAbstract.com recommends this book to any manager who hires, who is being hired for a high-level job or who would like to be.
