Review: Amazing book for someone transitioning from technical to managerial role
Review: The First-Time Manager is a really helpful book for anyone stepping into leadership for the first time. It covers all the basics you wish someone would explain when you suddenly find yourself responsible for a team — things like communication, building trust, handling tough conversations, setting expectations, and learning how to guide people instead of just doing everything yourself. What I appreciated most is how straightforward the book is. The authors don’t overcomplicate things. Each chapter focuses on a real skill a new manager needs, and the examples make it easy to understand how to apply the lessons in everyday situations. It felt like having a mentor walk me through the things I should be thinking about: treating people with respect, being consistent, giving clear direction, and making space for employees to grow. The book also gave me a few “pause and think” moments — especially around how much influence a manager’s attitude and approach can have on team culture. It helped me look at my own habits and consider what kind of manager I want to be long-term. If there’s one drawback, it’s that some of the concepts will feel familiar if you’ve read other modern leadership books. And since it’s meant for beginners, it stays pretty high-level rather than diving deep into advanced techniques. Overall, though, The First-Time Manager is a solid, practical guide that gives you the confidence and foundation to lead effectively. If you’re new to managing people—or want a refresher on good leadership basics—this book is definitely worth picking up.

*by S***. on 17 December 2019*

I purchased this book for 2 of my employees who have recently been promoted to Management roles. They are only about half way through at this time but the feedback is that this book is amazing! It covers everything and more that a first time Manager needs to learn and know. My pick of choosing this book for them was an optimal pick on my part! 😃
