Are you about to join a new company?

 

If yes, then you need to avoid the common mistakes because research has proven that most of the mismatches happen during the first 90 days. Issues like misaligned work culture, differing expectations, or the struggle to create a positive first impression can derail your journey.

 

Your first 90 days in a new company or role can be both exhilarating and challenging. It’s a critical period where the foundations for your future success are laid.

 

So to make a great start and settle down fast in your new company, be aware of the following 10 common mistakes:

1. Not taking time to learn and observe before taking action.

2. Trying hard to be liked.

3. Depending totally on what you know.

4. Assuming you’ll figure everything out quickly.

5. Thinking you have to work through your obstacles alone.

6. Not communicating enough about your strengths and weaknesses.

7. Not taking the time to learn who the key players are related to your role.

8. Not assessing your boss’ management style and then adapting your approach.

9. Becoming judgemental about things too early and becoming reactive.

10. Not capitalising your strengths to establish your credentials.

 

Now that you are aware of what not to do, it will be easier for you to make a head start in your new journey 🙂
