Lots of good advice with a key point being that planning is required before you start and the importance of Day 1. Some sections were however too high level in terms of being practical.

Great tool for new leaders. It gets into every detail you will need for your new position. I would recommend getting when you start your job hunt- it gives good insight to interviews and understanding of the company you want to work for.
