Amanda Clay Powers (ACP), Martin Garnar (MG), and Dustin Fife (DF) are all relatively new library leaders. This series is their attempt to discuss the process of moving to a new library and becoming more than just a new manager, but truly a leader. In part two, Powers, Garnar, and Fife will focus on the first 100 days. They will discuss getting started and working with a new team. In part one, the authors discussed finding their new jobs and in part three, they will discuss obstacles, mistakes, failures, and successes. They believe this open and honest conversation is essential to help prepare future library leaders.
