Developing High-performance Teams
1 Don’t let the newbies sink. Get your new employees off to a great start by clearly explaining the goals and expectations of the team, regularly checking in with them, and assigning a teammate as a “buddy” mentor.
2 Create a physically comfortable work environment. Ideas can come from peers, conferences or the employees themselves.
