ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The First 90 Days in Government" by Peter H. Daly and Michael Watkins offers a framework for navigating leadership transitions in the public sector. It emphasizes that the initial months of a new role are critical, presenting both opportunities and vulnerabilities. The book details how public sector transitions differ from private sector ones, focusing on the need for systematic planning rather than relying on instinct. It guides readers through challenges such as clarifying expectations, diagnosing situations, accelerating learning, aligning strategies, and managing relationships, all while providing strategies to secure early wins. The book stresses the importance of anticipating problems, building support systems, and practicing self-reflection to ensure success.
