Drawing from more than 25 years of international leadership experience across eight countries, Ogren addresses the most common challenge organizations face: promoting talented individual contributors without providing them the leadership tools needed to succeed. His career spanning Japan, Ecuador, United Arab Emirates, Lithuania, Canada, Sweden, Jordan, and the United States provides unique insights into universal leadership principles that work across cultures and industries.
"The transition from teammate to team leader is one of the most challenging career moves any professional makes," said Ogren. "This guide provides the practical tools and strategies I wish I had during my first supervisory roles around the world."
Unlike theoretical leadership books, "Leading From Day One" offers step-by-step guidance with worksheets and reflection exercises that transform concepts into practice. The book addresses key challenges including shifting from individual contributor to team leader, building trust and credibility, setting clear expectations, handling difficult conversations, creating psychological safety, effective delegation, and leading through change.
Each chapter combines research-backed principles with real-world examples, providing actionable strategies for immediate implementation. The practical approach reflects Ogren's experience developing transformative training programs during his tenure as Deputy Director of Management Training at the George P. Shultz National Foreign Affairs Training Center.
"New supervisors often feel overwhelmed and underprepared," Ogren noted. "This playbook gives them the confidence and tools they need to become respected, effective leaders from day one."
