[quote=Anonymous]Congrats on your new position. When I first became a manager, my mentor gave some spot-on advice. He said "Do not walk in the door with heavy feet!" LOL!! What he meant is that a lot of new managers come in with the "there's a new sheriff in town" mentality. As a result, they alientate the people they were brought in to manage. Think of it this way - your short term success as a manager is determined by getting the people you manage to buy what you are selling. Come in - have a team meeting and state your overall vision. Observe for a period and have your one on ones. During those one on ones, ask each employee for input. If that input makes sense, implement it. After the individuals, have another team meeting with a revised vision based on your observations and the meeting. The end goal is to give each employee a stake in team success. GL[/quote]
