Here is what people are saying about the The First 90 Days: Critical Success Strategies for New Leaders at All Levels
2 Star Rating  "Reading This is Like Watching Paint Dry"2009-10-20
- Reviewed By deltareviewer
My mama always says, "you never get a second chance to make a first impression". This is something that every new leader should keep in mind on their first days on the job. Watkins has a strong premise - recognize that the first 90 days in a new job are critical. You must fast track your learning curve, fit into the corporate structure, create a few coalitions, build a team, achieve alignment and negotiate success. Hmm, that stuff sounds really familiar - been there done that - in many other business/leadership books.

This book falls short by using every buzzword in the current system and failing to capture the full attention of the reader. Neither does it offer practical solutions to avoid the pitfalls of negative transitions. The majority of this information can be obtained by the companies Human Resources Director or good co-worker. Reading this book is like watching paint dry - if it's your weekend project the excitement may be there for the first wall but after that you might as well have someone else come in finish the job (just how I felt about reading this book).
 
1 Star Rating  "I can't get through it"2009-10-04
- Reviewed By flpisces67
This is a formulaic manual for what to do if you get a management type position. Basically, do this, then this, ect. It is extremely dry. I thought it might be of benefit to me even though I already have been in my job almost two years. Wrong. This is a book to read before you start a new management position. It is for corporate management settings, and maybe industrial management, but certainly not retail management. I thought it did have some very good suggestions about interviewing those around you, above, besides and below you, in order to make the greatest impact. In fact, after reading it, I am fairly certain my new boss read it because he pretty much followed the formula to a tee. For most people this book is not going to be relevant, but for the upper echelons of the corporate world, it is likely worthwhile for them to read.
 
5 Star Rating  "The perfect book for these economic times..."2009-09-26
- Reviewed By minnesotalawstudent
With many americans starting new jobs (if they are lucky enough to find one), this is the perfect resource to prepare yourself to start that new job successfully and create a foundation for future growth.

The book is aimed at higher-level positions, but the skills apply to any person who would be in a leadership or managerial role.

The book is a relatively quick read and excellent resource.
 
3 Star Rating  "Good, but a dime a dozen"2009-09-24
- Reviewed By languagejunkie
I appreciate what Michael Watkins has done here. He's written something that's pretty informative and insightful. However, I'm not sure if what he's really presented is anything truly original or truly relevant to any company's CEO. Each CEO has his or her unique style and the reaction presented by his workers will be a unique reaction as well. If you're an up-and-coming CEO, go ahead and buy it, but whether this is a unique product should really be left to the reader.
 
5 Star Rating  "Excellent Book"2009-09-22
- Reviewed By User: A3Q4JNDKIWU83Z
This is an excellent book for anyone who is going to have a promotion - of any kind, to any level. Helps to understand critical thing that must be done on the new position and ovoid critical mistakes.
 
3 Star Rating  "Another book that's too long"2009-08-09
- Reviewed By 57psalm
I agree with all the reviews that said this book is "dry" in tone, as I had a hard time staying interested. From what I got out of it, the book covers a topic known in the corporate world as "Change Management," which is simply managing the inevitable changes that come with any job, project, or major undertaking. They specifically talk about what to expect/do when you have just started a new position with a new company. It's a combination of leadership training, team training, management, and strategic planning.

I hope they come out with a "Cliff's notes" version of this. This book could be boiled down into about 10 pages of useful info. The rest is just fluff.
