They believe you can make significant contributions to the company.<\/p>\n<p>Do you believe this yourself?<\/p>\n<p>A fundamental component to succeeding in your new position is thinking positively. Napoleon Hill, author of <em>Think and Grow Rich<\/em>, writes, \u201cA positive mental attitude is a must for all who wish to make life pay off on their own terms.

Do the Basics<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first days of any job come with many initiation rituals.<\/p>\n<p>Ask about the company dress code beforehand so you arrive dressed appropriately on the first day. Right off, you\u2019ll be signing paperwork with Human Resources and meeting with the recruiter.<\/p>\n<p>The Human Resources Department orients new employees to the company with special training. Take good notes during this time to remember important names and features of the business. This way, you\u2019ll be able to focus on your job duties right away.<\/p>\n<p>Even though many people are now working from home, showing up on time is still a must for video conferencing on platforms such as Zoom and Google Meet.<\/p>\n<p>Take note that even video conferencing calls may have a dress code. Be sure to check your appearance beforehand to make sure you look polished and professional.<\/p>\n<p>Be patient during this time. It will take several days to settle into your regular working routine. Particularly if you\u2019re starting work remotely, you may experience initial technical glitches and delays. Be sure to check your computer and gadgets regularly for a smooth virtual initiation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teamly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Be-Confident.png\" alt=\"Be Confident\" width=\"860\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teamly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Be-Confident.png 860w, https:\/\/www.teamly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Be-Confident-300x152.png 300w, https:\/\/www.teamly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Be-Confident-768x388.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_be_confident\"><\/span>3. Be Confident<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We may not realize it, but everything we do each day requires a degree of confidence. Even driving to work in 60 mile an hour traffic demonstrates a lot of confidence&#8211;both in ourselves and the others on the road.<\/p>\n<p>Self-confidence is a belief that one can face whatever challenges life throws at us. Successfully facing the challenges of our new job requires tremendous self-confidence. Conversely, when self-doubt creeps in, work performance starts to dwindle.<\/p>\n<p>Self-confidence impacts our relationships with employees. They see our optimism and belief in ourselves, and it makes them want to work collaboratively with us. The same goes for customers and clients. Our confidence convinces them we have value and something worthwhile to bring to the table.<\/p>\n<p>Our professional reputations, ultimately, are impacted by our level of confidence. It puts others at ease and they like working with and being around us.<\/p>\n<p>But that negative self-talk always has a tendency to creep in. The good news is, you don\u2019t have to listen to it, because it isn\u2019t true! According to David and Tom Kelly, authors of Creative Confidence: Unleashing the Creative Potential Within Us All, everyone has a spark of creativity and can come up with breakthrough ideas.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s really about simply discovering what you have and being confident enough to bring it to the table.

It\u2019s part of every aspect of our lives. You may have even learned about your new job through social media.<\/p>\n<p>Bearing this in mind, Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, recommends <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northeastern.edu\/graduate\/blog\/tips-for-starting-a-new-job\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">learning the company\u2019s social media policy<\/a>. As an employee, everything you say and do on social media reflects back on the company. Gain a clear understanding of their policies, and even consider making your accounts private.<\/p>\n<p>Develop a habit of thinking carefully before you share anything on social media. You don\u2019t want to be the person who gets fired before starting the job due to irresponsible social media posts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_immerse_yourself\"><\/span>5.

Just go along enthusiastically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From the first day on, make it an objective to build a solid relationship with your manager.

This means that individuals who make up your new environment have their own customs, habits, and performance standards. To be fully accepted into their world, you will have to honor their ways of operating and adjust accordingly. You must become a part of the team to make a full contribution.

Listen to Learn<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Listening is said to be the key to success in any working environment. In the first few days of your new job, you will receive special instructions, policies, and other critical work-related reminders.<\/p>\n<p>Active listening allows you to acquire helpful information and understand a certain situation or person better. As a result, you are more aware of the work culture and can adapt quickly. Plus, it facilitates better communication and stronger interoffice relationships.<\/p>\n<p>According to Glassdoor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glassdoor.com\/blog\/guide\/active-listening-definition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">active listening<\/a> is an essential part of creating positive relationships at work. People tend to gravitate toward active listeners because they feel valued and respected when talking with them. Active listening allows you to get the most out of a conversation, versus zoning out when your colleague or employer shares.<\/p>\n<p>In order to listen effectively, it\u2019s important to face the speaker with engaged body language, and to make eye contact. Pay close attention to non-verbal cues, as their facial expressions and posture reveal a lot about what they\u2019re really saying. Additionally, be sure to listen through the end of someone\u2019s statement rather than interrupt.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the same rules also apply in the virtual realm. However, in order to appear listening and engaged, be sure to look into the camera while speaking and listening during a conference call rather than at the screen.<\/p>\n<p>If you work as a manager and with subordinates in your current role, active listening is essential, too. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1539\/joh.49.81\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">research suggests<\/a> that a supervisor\u2019s listening attitude and skill positively influence the working conditions and psychological stress reactions among subordinates.<\/p>\n<p>Subordinates who worked under supervisors with strong listening skills reported that they felt more supported and experienced less stress than those who worked under supervisors with weaker listening skills.<\/p>\n<p>This simply means that the more you listen, the higher the chance you have better, happier relationships with your colleagues.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_seek_out_ways_to_help\"><\/span>8.

Think ahead for new ways you can contribute to improving the company\u2019s services and products.<\/p>\n<p>Lending a helping hand among your colleagues gives the impression that you are a team player, doer, and eager to learn and grow.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t mean taking on more than you can chew.

It gives you permission to put your hand up for things that are outside of the scope of your day-to-day job, providing you with additional opportunities.
