New Job Anxiety and Tools Everyone Can Use

Recently I started a new job. The job and people are excellent but I found myself trying too hard and doubting my skills. This anxiety is common and can easily overwhelm a new person in any organization. I recalled the lessons I had learned from my mentors, applied them to my own situation, and sought to share them as well. Please feel free to add your own suggestions and share this post.

Organizational Fear … what are your people afraid of?

Admitting fear makes someone vulnerable. Being vulnerable is not something that many people are willing to discuss.

To reveal the fears in your organization there must be a culture of non-judgment, open communication, and earned trust. If those three elements are in place, then by listening and watching it is possible to identify fears and the people who are suffering.
