Political observers have long attached a near-talismanic status to the
first 100 days of a new administration. For an executive taking the new
role as a corporate leader, the first 100 days are no less
consequential.
The New Boss is a guide for newly appointed senior managers to make a
successful leadership transition. Written by Peter Fischer, an
industrial psychologist and psychotherapist, this book provides new
bosses with tried and tested models and self-assessment techniques for
managing expectations, building key relationships, and implementing
change during the first three months in charge. This book identifies all
the problems a new boss is likely to face, shows how to deal with them,
and allows the new boss to "hit the ground running."
