Army Handbook for Leadership: Transitions

Abstract

The Army Leader Transitions Handbook is designed to help leaders plan and execute a successful transition to a new leadership position. The intent is to provide a ready reference for all leaders: direct, organizational and strategic. The Army Leader Transitions Handbook offers a methodology to help leaders transition into a new leadership position as effectively and efficiently as possible. The handbook contains best practices and proven techniques from military and civilian sources. The Army Leader Transitions Handbook provides leaders with a step-by-step process for assuming a new leadership role starting from the time the leader is notified of the new leadership position to first day actions and considerations for the first 90 days and beyond. Although presented as a checklist, the Army Leader Transitions Handbook should be viewed more as a menu of ideas for the leader to choose. Preparation is the key to a successful leader transition.
