Many people, particularly in sales, often change their job or company. You find yourself in a completely new environment. In order to make the best impression in the first days, weeks, months and become used to the new environment and teammates, you should take advantage of these tips by saleshq.monster.com website.
1. For long term success, get to know your new company’s key players. Network and get to know your new colleagues and their roles. Try to remember the names of as many people as you can, and use them once or twice a week. Always smile, you need to project a positive attitude.
2. Don’t bother others with too much chitchat. It is perfect to ask “How was your weekend?” or answer it quickly with “Alright. And yours?”. At first, the only correct answer is that your weekend, evening, lunch, etc. was “Very good”, do not add more. Your colleagues may ask, but that does not always mean they genuinely care. If you give way too many details, the next time they will avoid talking with you.
3. Get familiar with the environment and processes. In the first months you should observe the management style and whole company culture. Pay attention and study your bosses and leaders carefully.
4. No gossip. Nod in agreement if you feel that you should, smile, but no gossip. Your trustworthiness is at stake, do not risk it. However, be a careful listener, consider everything you hear and think about every bit of information.
5. Earn the confidence and trust of your teammates. Be humble when you are praised then point out the effort of others. Give credit to your colleagues. At first let your boss lead you and accept recommendations from others. After 1-2 months you can begin to make your own recommendations.
