After a month, I have a clearer view of what I should be doing in my new role. How I could add the most value, leveraging the unique me. The team of three I’ve inherited are doing a good job after the weakest link transferred to another division. One of them has been underutilized for 8 months. The consultant in charge was doing all the analysis, and the weak link owned relationships. Without guidance and push, she wasn’t doing anything. She lost the zest for work and found ways to cope to earn the monthly paycheck.
Given the opportunity, some come to life to shine. She blossoms and emerges strongest member of my team. When I tell my boss this, he’s surprised. It makes me happy to see her grow confident and ask really good questions!
