Getting a new job can be an exciting endeavor.  It can also be a little overwhelming.  There are many tips that you can consider to get yourself on the right track. 

Introduce Yourself 

Although you may not want to draw attention to yourself on your first days at a new job, consider finding the right timing to give a quick introduction to people you may have not met.  You want them to know you are excited to be there and that you are enthusiastic about your work.  Also, do your best to remember names and use them to show that you care about them. 

Sometimes bosses expect quite a bit from their employees and they do not realize when their employees are working too much.  When you walk through the office, what type of environment do you sense?  Were people more or less friendly when you were in the room?  Paying attention to these warning signs can help you and your organization succeed.

Team building exercises always seem like a fun way to get a group of people together.  Team building activities are not meant to be business or company policy meetings, but a time for your people to get to know one another in a non-work-related manner.  Doing an activity that is fun and intriguing is a way to boost morale and foster an engaging environment.  These activities build trust and respect.
