As the saying goes, "You're only as good as your team".
But what happens when you inherit a team you didn't hire and know nothing about?
When taking on a new role, we often inherit teams. It may be on joining a new company or when assigned responsibility for a new area. We must quickly evaluate the team we have acquired, and ensure they are in good shape, and able to deliver what’s required.
In this session, James Ferguson draws on his wide experience of leading and being led to provide practical advice, describing the tools that can be immediately deployed to lead a new team with confidence.
Covering:
- Fast-tracking relationship building.
- Establishing the desired culture from the outset.
- Transforming and moulding the team to deliver with impact.
- Knowing when to leave well alone – if it doesn’t need changing don’t tamper.
