Job Success in 90 Days: Navigating a Successful Job Transition Cheryl Gowdie

JOB SUCCESS IN 90 DAYS will provide you with insight, skills and confidence to navigate a successful job transition, ideally within the first 90 days. This book is divided into four parts, the first section provides insight into two scenarios; an unsuccessful and a successful transition. The second section looks at potential barriers and how to overcome them. The third section presents an in-depth discussion of the factors you should consider during your first 90 days. The final section looks at some of the assumptions which may influence your transition, and how to leverage them to facilitate a successful integration into your new job. As you move through the chapters you will observe the unfolding of our intentional transition strategy.

The early weeks are critical in an employee's job transition. You could equate this scenario to a plant being uprooted from one location in which it was well established and replanted into another. If the conditions in which the plant is relocated are not similar to, or better than its previous environment, there is every chance it will not survive and even if it does it will not reach its full potential. The same can be said when an individual transitions from one job to the next.

'Once I started reading Job Success in 90 Days, I could not put it down. If you are thinking about ways to improve your day-to-day job or move up the corporate ladder, this is an excellent tool to have in your arsenal. It addresses the very basic through to the advanced elements of any job assignment. Cheryl created steps that can be easily followed and embodies the kind of vision organisations look for in candidates. I believe this book is not only for individuals, but should be a staple in every organisation's training library'. A R Whittaker, Reviewer
