When we’re starting a new position, it’s easy to make wrong assumptions and decisions because we lack the detailed knowledge of the challenges ahead, what it will take to succeed, an established network and a deeper understanding of the organizational culture.
If we fail to create positive momentum and get the needed insights during the first few months on the job, it can result in compromising our success in both the short and long term.
Onboarding coaching is a structured process that provides a road map to help build trust, credibility and secure some early wins. Getting these elements right help lay the foundation for long-term job success and satisfaction.
What onboarding coaching can do for you:
✓ Define and plan what you need to learn about the organization, the job and the new context.
✓ Prepare your messaging in terms of introductions, questions and relationship building with the new team and significant stakeholders.
✓ Identify and secure early wins.
✓ Build a productive and strong relationship with your new boss.
✓ Help adjust from being the colleague to being the new boss.
✓ Ensure a smooth and quick integration into the new role and minimizing mistakes
