A new CEO means everyone in the organization is now a new hire--an unknown entity that must prove he or she can and will enthusiastically, tirelessly support the CEO's agenda. Those who want to stay on the payroll must avoid a business-as-usual attitude and demonstrate that they share the CEO's dedication to change. If you're in a staff job, it's important to show you're essential to the new regime, quickly and convincingly. Some important steps to consider as you plan for the transition include: Do your home-work; anticipate the CEO's needs; be supportive and nonpolitical; be realistic with your direct reports; and appear poised to leave willingly and quietly--and you may not have to.
新上任的首席执行官意味着组织中的每个人现在都是新员工——一个未知的个体，必须证明他或她能够并将热情、不懈地支持首席执行官的议程。那些想保住工作的人必须避免照旧行事的态度，要表明他们认同首席执行官对变革的执着。如果你从事的是员工工作，迅速且令人信服地展示你对新体制至关重要很重要。在你为过渡做计划时需要考虑的一些重要步骤包括：做好准备工作；预测首席执行官的需求；给予支持且不搞政治；对你的直接下属实事求是；表现出随时准备心甘情愿且悄无声息地离开的姿态——而你可能不必真的离开。
