The First 100 Days of an Acquisition Workforce Manager

Abstract

As in life, the first impression is very important for a new manager. Newly appointed managers enjoyed success in their previous careers and would very much like to succeed in the new role of manager. However, things have changed. The dynamics of peer and subordinate interaction have changed. Expectations and ones role within the organization are different. And the way the new manager is perceived has shifted. With that new title, you may no longer be one of the guys. The challenge is to develop a plan that allows you to make the transition effectively. This is not as easy as it sounds. Managing others is not easy. There is no ready-made template for success once you become a manager. Each situation is different because everyone is unique.
