New Job — Becoming Part of a Close-Knit Team

Perhaps you are looking for a new job or are just planning to change your current one. Keep in mind that passing an interview and getting a job offer is only half the battle. The main challenge lies ahead. You have to blend into a new team and be accepted as part of it. Our online course will help you successfully tackle this challenge!

When you start working for a company, you need to become a fixture. It is not for nothing that employers set probationary periods for newcomers, as well as when employees take a new position within the company. A study conducted in 2020 in Russia showed that when onboarding, people are more scared of not hitting it off with the team and the boss. At the same time, employees under the age of twenty-five are afraid of not becoming a fixture in the company more than others. And on the contrary, those who are over forty-five are sure that they will not have any difficulties with onboarding.

So what should you do and how should you behave to blend into the team? You will receive tips to help you get through the onboarding crisis in a short time. Speakers will tell you what will help you or, conversely, become an obstacle on the way to successful communication and trusting relationship with the leader. You will learn about those patterns of behaviour that will be negatively perceived in any team. You will receive recommendations that will help you get a foot in the door as a leader and safely become part of the team. You will also understand how to give feedback correctly. We will discuss how the so-called "agile" skills, that is, soft skills can help you successfully fit into a new company, and how to develop them.
