Suddenly in Charge 2E

Managing Up Managing Down Succeeding All Around

By: Roberta Matuson

Narrated by: Roberta Matuson

As companies reorganize and reengineer, people are finding themselves tossed into management every day with little to no training or preparation. Literally two books in one, Suddenly in Charge provides all of the tools necessary to be successful at managing up and down the line of any organization.

In addition to updates to all chapters, this revised and updated edition features seven new chapters aligned to modern approaches to management.

New topics include: executive presence, working with a coach or mentor, employee retention, creating purpose, the multi-generational workforce, and more.

Not just for new managers, I love this book!

This book is really two books in one. It starts with the "managing up" part so if you have a boss, I highly recommend you read this useful, engaging, and "tell it like it is" book. I learned some things in the "managing down" part and definitely wish that this book had been around when I first started managing people.

I've been in the workforce for decades so I wasn't sure if this book would bring any new insights. IT DID! Loved the section on how to create a vision or mission with your team.

I listened to the audiobook and found the author's reading of her book to be an added bonus.

This is a timeless read and listen. If you don’t understand what and how to manage your leaders…. Get this book NOW!!! Great book!!

Great value!

Only at chapter one but already feel like I gained so much knowledge in how to succeed with professional relationships. Great value and worth the read regardless of background.

I wish I would have read this book before

This books gives you the insights that no company or person will. If I could have read this book before I started my career at Corporate America, I would have navigated multiple situations much better!
