Understanding your employee's previous experience

Bringing people together from different professional background can get your team thinking in new ways and innovating better than ever - but it can take an adjustment period that's important for managers to be aware of and support. 

In this episode, I talk about the importance of the context team members bring from previous industries and roles, how to celebrate and leverage qualities that help make the new team better, and how help someone get up to speed on how the new company operates. Following the strategies I talk about in this episode helps make for a seamless transition where folks feel setup for success and appreciate for the different skills they bring.
