Several years ago, when I transitioned into my current position, I read the book and developed a two-page plan based upon its recommendations. I found them very useful. As with most plans, I departed from it, but it helped me clarify my planning and it gave me confidence when I needed it. I recommend this book for anyone newly promoted into a new position.

I love that book. It has lots of actionable items for how to actively learn about the company and department and how to get a strong start in a new role

I love this book. I have used it before in a past transition and I am currently re-reading in preparation for the new position I will be taking on and it is definitely helping me plan.

I read it when I started a new job 4 years ago. I changed jobs again a year ago, and have now just taken on a significant new responsibility. I forgot about that one, thanks for the reminder.
