Abstract: The editorial previews articles in this issue of 
"Harvard Business Review," which is dedicated to the topic of 
self-management. The team that put the issue together, led by Executive 
Editor Sarah Cliffe, reasoned that the articles should delve into three 
aspects of self-management: managing work -- the job you have now; 
managing careers -- the arc of your working life; and managing the 
relationship between work and the rest of life -- the connection between 
your work, family, and other commitments. Articles include Ned 
Hallowell's "Overloaded Circuits: Why Smart People Underperform," an 
important article about managing your job, and "What's Your Story?" in 
which Insead's Herminia Ibarra and consultant Kent Lineback reveal a 
powerful technique to help manage big career transitions, such as a 
major promotion or a midlife job hunt.

FROM THE EDITOR 
What's in it for Me 
SIX YEARS AGO, we published Peter Drucker's article "Managing Oneself," 
which argued that executives ought to apply their managerial skills to 
their own lives, jobs, and careers. That article got us thinking. 
(Peter's articles always do.) Popular magazines are full of self-help 
advice for life and work. "Firm Your Bottom Line." "Thin Your Files in 
30 Days" But there is little solidly researched, deeply informed, 
demonstrably practical material to help busy managers take care of their 
professional lives. You come to HBR for smart writing about leadership, 
strategy, management, marketing, and so on. Should we help with 
self-management, too? In 2002, we published our first article -- "A 
Survival Guide for Leaders" -- in a new Managing Yourself department. 
Now we are publishing an entire issue on the topic. We created this 
issue for two reasons. One, frankly, was to prime the pump: to force 
ourselves to think through what a Managing Yourself article should be, 
so we can bring you more and better ones. The more important, second 
reason is to serve you. The team that put this issue together, led by 
Executive Editor Sarah Cliffe, reasoned that we should delve into three 
aspects of self-management: managing work -- the job you have now; 
managing careers -- the arc of your working life; and managing the 
relationship between work
