Easy Integration: Getting New Team Members Up and Running Quickly
Before you take on the task of integrating newbies into your team, think back to the days when you
first joined. You were probably unsure about how your new coworkers would treat you, worried about being accepted, and maybe even wondered if you could even do the job. Your new team members will feel the same way. Did your new manager just point at a desk and wish you luck, or did someone carefully teach and mentor you? While to some extent it’s the responsibility of the new hire to learn his or her job, the harder it is and the less help they have, the more likely they’ll fail. One study has
found that up to 16% of new hires quit after the first week!
If a new hire fails, the whole team fails, because finding and hiring new a replacement costs money—money your team and organization can’t use for other things. So it makes sense to ease people into their new roles. If one of you old salts can
show them the ropes, things will be shipshape in no time.

Video of the Week: Business Culture
If you have a culture of tardiness, and the meeting starts at 2:00, what time does the meeting really start? 2:10, 2:15 Right? Because you know the real meeting isn’t going to start until 2:15. Doesn’t that shape behavior? It’s easy to say, “oh well that’s just our culture,” and just wave it off or use it as an excuse or, almost as an enabler of behaviors that we know
are kind of counterproductive. Don't let this happen to you and your team. Check out the video here.
