Succeeding in a new job

(upbeat music)…- You want to get a sense of what will be expected of you…as quickly as possible.…Maybe that means coming in beforehand…to meet with or shadow the team or joining them for lunch.…Ask what will work for everyone, which is also the position…you want to take in any organization.…And be careful, be appropriate…and not too pushy or overeager.…- Although managing your professional image…is important when making an impression,…it's essential to always be authentic,…always be yourself.…

The trick is to show parts of your personality…at the appropriate time.…- Have respect for the culture you're joining…and the people who have been part of it…because you may be coming…from outside the company or a department,…you offer a fresh perspective and new ideas.…Presumably, that's part of the reason you were hired…but first, learn how things work around there.…Wait before you begin to offer your brilliant ideas…and get permission to do so beforehand.…

- Listening is an invisible skill.…It's not flashy.…It doesn't announce itself.…
