Title: Managing transitions
Review: Darwinian, or sink or swim transition management is a poor strategy for developing leaders. Michael Watkins proposes the 'STaRS' model, which translated into four situations: sustaining success, turnaround, realignment, and start-up. Matching right strategy to each situation is key. How you position yourself with the team, with your boss, and even your own mental self will make or break or your career. The author walks through all of these steps offering numerous examples and great commentary - this book will not guarantee success, but it may well relieve some of the stress associated with the transition.
