Master Your Next Move

More about the book

Your next professional move can significantly impact your career—are you prepared? In today's business environment, success hinges on effective career transitions. A successful transition can propel you into more challenging roles, while a failure could jeopardize your career and your organization. Transition expert Michael D. Watkins, author of an international bestseller, has spent years assisting leaders in navigating these critical shifts. Through his work, he discovered that while his foundational principles apply universally, their application varies depending on the nature of the transition—whether it's a promotion, joining a new organization, or relocating internationally. Master Your Next Move addresses this need by focusing on the most common transitions leaders encounter and the unique challenges they present. Drawing on extensive research and featuring a new introduction, this essential guide examines eight pivotal transitions that nearly every professional will face, such as promotions, leading former peers, onboarding in a new company, international relocations, and managing business turnarounds. With practical models, tools, and real-world examples, this book serves as a vital resource for thriving in your next career move and beyond.
