Creating a New Leader Workbook for recently hired executives requires careful consideration of important crucial components to ensure its effectiveness. You have rightly identified Vision, Mission, Values, Behaviors, Priorities, and Key Resources. Some other key components which you might take into consideration are:

The content should be at an advanced level, providing insights, strategies, and best practices that are suitable for executives and Directors. Avoiding basic or introductory information that they most likely know already. Introducing sophisticated leadership models and frameworks that cater to senior leadership roles. Covering topics such as change management, stakeholder engagement, and strategic execution.

Including content that enhances their understanding of financial statements, budgeting, and other key financial aspects. Executives at this level should have a solid grasp of how their decisions impact the organization's financial health.

Providing insights into leading through change, including strategies for managing resistance and driving organizational transformation. Gaining endorsement and support from top-level executives, ensuring alignment with organizational strategies and commitment to the workbook's effectiveness.
