CHAPTER 2

Time, Talent, Relationships, and Transformation

From our research and Transition Labs, we find there are four key pillars to effective transition leadership. These are the management of time, talent, relationships, and transformation. Focusing on these four pillars can help you cut through the noise and attend to what is important to make your transition a success. This chapter introduces these four pillars and why they are important to consider in a transition. Chapter 3 introduces the four faces of leadership, and Chapter 4 examines hopes, fears, and legacy that can shape transitions. The remainder of this book, beginning in Chapter 5, looks at how to effectively manage the four pillars.
