New Hires: When The Honeymoon Ends

from LEAD 'EM ALL · host High Performance Leaders

Hiring someone new can feel like you've finally found the person you've been looking for.But sometimes leaders can get caught up in the excitement and start putting a new hire on a pedestal before they've really had a chance to understand them. At the same time the new employee is trying to prove they were worth hiring, bringing plenty of energy, ideas and enthusiasm. Eventually though the honeymoon ends and reality kicks in.In this episode we look at the expectations leaders place on new hires, why we can expect them to fix problems that have existed for years. We also look at it from the new hire's perspective and why learning, listening and building relationships should come before trying to change everything.🎧Spotify – YouTube – AppleHigh Performance LeadersWhether you're developing leaders, recognising your people or building a stronger team, we’ve got you covered.- 1:1 Leadership Coaching- Team Workshops & Custom Training- Operational Leadership Support - Leadership Recognition Stories👉 Contact Daniel: https://www.highpl.com.au/
