Well, it would seem, all the complex behind - the interview successfully completed and cherished position is already "in the pocket". It's time to rejoice and be proud of themselves - a clever and successful. However, for some reason, my heart is not calm ... However, nothing surprising here, because there is still a rather complicated stage - gradually integrate into a new team.

According to most psychologists, job change - this is one of the most serious stress. According to statistics, complaints handling, "I'm afraid of a new team and I can not overcome this fear" - one of the most frequent. During this period, even the very sociable and self-confident people may have doubts about your own abilities, and the fear that the team did not want to take the new employee. In fact, those "horrors" that helpfully draws you to your imagination, never implemented and will remain "a terrible fairy tale." And then, once everyone has to pass through this stage, getting a job. And, mind you - all survive! So, can you. Well, in order to make this process took place with minimal losses, you just have to remember a few simple rules and develop a strategy.

Relationships in the team

First, a little theory. Relationships in any group can be divided into three main types. From that, what type is present in the company depends not only on your ability to professionally perform their duties, but also the whole future career. In order to understand how to adapt to a new team, in the early days you just need to carefully watch the staff and try to determine what type of relationship prevail. And only after that, "armed with knowledge," to correct his behavior.

  1. The most successful and stable companies have a strict hierarchy. Between employees established formal relations. In this case, you have to accept things as they are, and try not to discuss co-operation and new, especially leadership.
  2. Relationships between staff friendly and familiarly, in spite of the position and age. In this case, try to avoid excessive frankness, and keep your distance. Do not try to immediately, on the first day, to become "the guy." Look more closely to the people.
  3. In the team there is no clear personnel policies. Relations are developing spontaneously, often there are conflicts and unresolved problems. It will be difficult to realize themselves and too much time will have to be paid to interpersonal relationships that can go to the detriment of the work. Just try to strictly follow the instructions of the job and avoid conflict.

Introducing the new team

Well, perhaps the theory is enough - it's time to move on to the practice. How to make acquaintance with the new team was painless? How to behave? How to adapt to a new team?

For some reason, very often old as the world, saying "in a strange monastery with its charter, not walk," forget the most inopportune moment. And in vain! New staff - and there is that notorious another monastery. And his statutes have to learn. And the sooner you do, the easier. Probably about such trivial things like being late, we will not even talk. I think that since everyone understands that late for work - especially in the early days! - It is absolutely unacceptable. But on the "dress code" is worth looking in more detail.

Almost every company has its own dress code. Somewhere, he is very strict, somewhere - quite free. But, nevertheless, it is. How do you know exactly which style should be dressed for the first time? It's very simple. A day or two before its release do not be lazy, and by the end of the day drove up to the enterprise. Look closely at the emerging employees - most likely everything will be clear. Houses carefully reconsider her wardrobe and decide what things are most consistent with the style of the company. Nothing suitable was found? Well, what to do - need to "fork". And believe me, it's not a waste of money - it is an investment in a future career.

And, of course, to feel confident and to make a good impression before going to work is a hairdresser - no "tail" or long flowing hair! - A manicure and pedicure and tidy "working" clothes. Yes, it should also be very careful approach to the choice of ornaments - diamonds and big, and bright jewelry will look equally inappropriate. With this, like, everything. What more needs to be done to adapt was easy?

Adapting to a new team

Of all the candidates for the position you have chosen. This means that you have the qualities that are needed for the job and managed to prove it in the interview. Therefore, the first and most natural desire - to "take the bull by the horns" - immediately begin to prove that you are not wrong. Unfortunately, this is one of the most common mistakes "newcomers". No need to rush and try on the first day to demonstrate to all its expertise, strong character, "fresh look" and "creative approach". Most likely, this will be perceived incorrectly zeal - you deem upstart, "all-knowing" and career-ready to walk over. In order to understand how to adapt to a new team, in the first stage is better to listen more and talk less.

For starters, remember the names of the new colleagues - it always makes a good impression. If the staff very much, and you're not too trust in his memory - write down information such as Notepad. Just try to make it so that no one noticed. And something else will think you started to collect records! A few days watch the staff. Notice to whom accepted to address "you" and to whom "you". However, before the "poke" someone, it is better to clarify once again a person, what form of treatment he prefers.

Highlight the one who enjoys the greatest respect. Make is not difficult. Just have a look, to whom often turn to the issues and whose opinion referred to in the conversation. Try to make contact with that person - it can provide you with invaluable assistance. Only this must be done "rationally." It is not necessary "to climb into the soul" or try to confide and talk about themselves. It is better to seek advice on some issue related to your new job and responsibilities. And the questions you have, certainly, there is! Do not be afraid to "fall into the eyes of the" new colleagues - each company has its own quirks that you just can not know if you have come more recently. Ignorance of the nuances can cause serious errors. But the interest and the desire to "get to the core" is likely to cause only positive emotions.

Some of the employees he rushes you with "open arms" and is actively trying to improve relations and offers help? This should be treated cautiously. This behavior is typical for outsiders trying to attract supporters to his camp. Of course, the temptation to get someone's support - especially when you do not have enough of her! - Very large. But you - a new man, and yet do not know any of those relationships that have already been established, nor the reasons for which they have developed so and not otherwise. Therefore, the risk to make a mistake is very high. However, it is not necessary to push a man - or he may harbor a grudge.

Under no circumstances do not allow familiarity, do not allow to involve themselves in disputes and beware show "sparkling humor" - a "cocktail" can greatly impair a budding relationship. But if you are invited to dine together - do not need to give up! Time spent in an informal setting, can help you get closer to the people and to join the new team. The truth here must be very careful. For example, if your presence discussing someone - do not rush to give their assessment of what is happening. Better keep the "neutrality". Try to treat all relaxed and friendly. Often smile.

"Checking the strength of" a new team

What other surprises can prepare for you a new team? Perhaps one of the most unpleasant - a "test of strength". Unfortunately, such methods - are not uncommon. Do not be upset and think that you dislike from the first day. It is possible that this is just a kind of company policy. By the way, according to some reports, such checks on "entering" staged its employees and such "Shark Business", as Henry Ford, Bill Gates and Rupert Murdoch. What is the test? "Freshman" is charged with the work, and almost from the first day, entrust the execution of any challenge. And then - carefully watching to see how he copes with the proposed situation, and how to respond to criticism. The main thing - do not make a blunder!

In no case do not express bewilderment or irritation. Thoroughly to find out what is the result of the offers. Ask deadlines. If necessary, ask additional questions. Calmly and confidently proceed to the assignment. If you feel you do not fit in the allotted time, ask whether it is possible to stay in the workplace longer, in order to meet the set deadlines. Surely such hard work and responsibility are appreciated. If your work was criticized - do not panic and depression. No accident has occurred. Attentive and friendly hear all the comments. Analyze your mistakes and try to correct them as soon as possible and will not be repeated in the future.

Even if you do come to a managerial position, the question of how to enter a new team, no less important. It is possible that the subordinates will want to check your competence and strength of character. To between you and the staff established a good working relationship and calm, it is not necessary to "tighten the screws" and set their own rules on the first working day. First, look at the existing rules and laws. Draw conclusions. And to introduce various innovations will be after you hearken to all the details and feel good about yourself.

No matter what position you came, try to impress a calm, friendly and competent person. Then acquaintance with the new team will go smoothly and painlessly. After all, your new colleagues - is not the enemy, just as unfamiliar to you, people of character, way of life and habits. It will take quite a bit of time and you will surely become not only colleagues, but also friends. And maybe even find true loyal friends. In addition, the new work - it is always interesting! This new perspective, new experiences and opportunities. And you have all the necessary work.
