Integration coaching
Whatever his or her level, a manager is vulnerable in the first months of a new role. Periodic meetings help clarify the components of the new position, the main responsibilities, and the best way to rally the team around organizational objectives. Our professionals provide a sustained presence that supports success throughout those first months.
From comments gathered from a number of managers in post, we have prepared a list of important points to consider in order to manage those crucial first hundred days effectively.
Here are some of those points:
Before leaving the current position
- Prepare an exit plan
- Ensure the transfer of files
- Organize a preparatory meeting with the successor
The first three months in the new position
- Meeting with the supervisor – establish priorities
- Establish a management style from day one – get out and talk to people
- Listen, listen and… listen
Three to six months after starting the new position
- Review the strategic perspective
- Meeting with the supervisor – review priorities
- Communication with peers and employees is already well established
Our methodology
- Meeting with the client to establish an integration plan.
- Initial meeting with the newly hired or promoted manager to present the integration plan.
- Periodic meetings with the manager to ensure that the integration proceeds well.
