Lots of new responsibilities: Looking for advice
Pranish Kantesaria | Dec 31 2007
Hey all, I just went from being a resident with 0 administrative responsibility (except for patients) to being in charge of the pharmacy department of a 220 bed hospital with about 40 or so people I'm responsible for. Basically I'm freaking out. I need advice and I've just bought GTD and am looking for ways to keep up before I inevitably fall behind. Any advice, suggestions, or anecdotes would be greatly appreciated. [Ed's note: I "bumped" this question because I missed it first time around, and I'd love to hear what sorts of advice people have. -- Merlin] 18 Comments

You say you're in charge of the department, and responsible for 40 people. That sounds like you're a manager now. If so, I highly recommend the information at manager-tools.com. It's a series of podcasts and related notes that are wonderful for the new manager. They've been at it a while, and regularly add new material. So, the site can be overwhelming at first. I recommend you start with the "essentials" series. There should be a link to it on the front page. Good luck! » POSTED IN:
