Congrats! You've Been Promoted

Pre-Order Today

Getting promoted is one of the most exciting events in a career. Yet many are placed in the role without any knowledge of what it takes to be a leader, let alone a great leader. You’re expected to sink or swim, and most companies don’t provide any support or leadership training either before or after the promotion.

You want to be an excellent leader for your team, but where can you find the basic tools and strategies you need?

What People Are Saying...

"A guide for today’s leaders…  Noel has truly “walked the walk”.  In this book, he provides a clear and practical roadmap for becoming an effective leader in today’s business world.  Grounded in characteristics he cultivated, modeled and mastered over the arc of his impactful career, Noel’s journey led him to become one of the nation’s greatest business and civic leaders. Let this book put you on your path to exceptional leadership"
Matthew A. Toledo

"Every Young Aspiring Leader benefits from having a mentor. There is no other mentoring book like “You’ve Been Promoted”.  Young leaders who read the book benefit from practical guidance via examples from Noel Massie who discusses his hands-on real-world experience in the book. This book will be particularly valuable to younger leaders who work a lot at home instead of in the workplace due to COVID. Having been a college President, this book will truly benefit individuals who wish to work in academic administration including Department Chairs, Deans, Provosts, leaders of student affairs and Presidents."
Deborah Freund
President Emerita, Claremont Graduate University
"Congrats! You’ve Been Promoted" is a crucial resource for today’s emerging leaders, particularly in the wake of COVID-19, which has left many young managers without traditional face-to-face mentoring. As experienced leaders retire and leadership gaps widen, this book steps in to provide essential guidance for those stepping into supervisory roles. It bridges the gap left by the lack of in-person training and mentorship, offering practical, real-world strategies to build confidence and effectiveness from day one. With actionable advice on communication, feedback, and conflict resolution, it’s an indispensable tool for navigating modern leadership challenges and ensuring success in newly promoted roles."
Lucy Dunn
CEO Emeritus, Orange County Business Council
"Some Leaders are full of theory and rhetoric Noel Massie is not one of those leaders. In Noel’s 40 plus years as a leader, mentor, and coach servant leadership has been his mantra. Noel has developed people by being intentional about how to lead and being granular in his approach. Noel’s philosophy is that every interaction matters and over time trust and respect is earned regardless of title. Terms and Conditions dive deeply into the importance that in every connection all parties need to know exactly what is expected of each other and continuous feedback is the key. Terms and conditions can be the foundation to any organization’s leadership culture."
Nicholas Kochek
President, Emeritus Temco Logistics
"Training people as they rise up the ranks and become managers can be challenging. This book provides very pragmatic lessons, examples and activities people can use daily to manage better and to look at difficult situations in a new light. Noel has shared stories all of us can relate to; this book helps introduce management theory you learn in business school, but in a way that every person can grasp it and say," I can do that".  A great tool for leaders and those who want to move up in their corporations."

"Noel Massie, was an outstanding leader in his position as President, UPS South California District and in his community involvement as Chairman of the Board of the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce. In every organization with which Noel was involved, he had one goal, and that was to lead with enthusiasm and action. He was as confident and quick to move forward as any business leader with whom I worked during my 43 years as a chamber of commerce executive in four states. He brought new and pertinent background information to every conversation and was narrowly focused on results in every interaction. "
