Why you should read You're in Charge – Now What?
The immediate task for CEOs who land a dream job is making sure it doesn’t turn into a nightmare. Authors Thomas J. Neff and James M. Citrin provide a marvelous "executive how-to kit" that draws on their extensive management and consulting experience. They explain everything you need to know about getting off to an excellent start now that you’re ensconced in the corner office. While the book is targeted to CEOs, it applies to anyone stepping up to a higher level of leadership. Taking over a new role often means enduring what AOL’s Jon Miller describes as a "temporary state of incompetence." Even if your promotion becomes a trial by fire, getAbstract.com believes this book will help you direct the flames and propel your organization to new heights of achievement.
