First-Time Manager 90-Day Planner

Promoted? Now what. You got the job. Nobody handed you the manual. This is the first 90 days, in one small book — what to do, who to talk to, and how to prove you belong there, without the 129-page textbook. It's built in three phases. Days 1–30, Listen: learn the team, learn the work, earn trust. Days 31–60, Order: fix what's messy, set the rhythm, start delegating properly. Days 61–90, Boost: show your boss the results, with the evidence to back it up. Every review page has an evidence table: result, evidence, date. What's inside — 34 pages, undated, fully hyperlinked: 30-60-90 Roadmap plus a guide for each phase, with Do / Ask / Done-when checklists; Team Index with 6 profile pages — strengths, how they like to be managed, a pulse-over-time log so you can see someone slipping, and a 'promises I made to them' log (duplicate pages in your app for bigger teams); Reusable 1:1 Planner that starts with follow-through on last time's actions, plus a place to capture specific praise and the blockers you'll remove, with a date; Delegation Tracker with a Tell / Teach / Coach / Own picker and a 'why them' column — delegation as development, not dumping; Feedback Log with Situation–Behaviour–Impact tables and a praise-vs-coaching balance check; Difficult Conversation Prep with a 4-step script, Decision Log, Quick Wins Tracker; Day 30, Day 60, and Day 90 boss-review pages, plus notes pages — meeting notes with decisions and actions, a thinking page, and a people + follow-up log. Works in any PDF note app — GoodNotes, Notability, Samsung Notes, Noteshelf, reMarkable, Supernote, BOOX, Kindle Scribe. Tap to jump between pages. Duplicate any page when you need more room.
