Based on the authors' successful Vital Signs education programme it identifies the critical skills needed to hit the ground running as a manager. It is an accessible easily comprehensible guide to gaining the self-confidence and the respect of staff and to creating a steady platform for acquiring and mastering a wide range of skills in the future.
