146. Leading a Team Integration

146. Leading a Team Integration

So today's episode is about bringing a team together and integrating them in a way that they're successful. Sometimes this happens when you are the leader taking over a team and bringing a new team underneath you as well. You might be a new leader who's joining an organization and is inheriting a team that you haven't had before. There are all kinds of different scenarios that this can happen. When a new team begins to work together, it can take time to be productive and effective. So if you can do this successfully, they become more productive more quickly. They create a stronger bond together, and they actually are excited about the things that you're going to do together.

In this episode:

• Integrating a team with intention can make a difference in the success of the team.
• What are the team members thinking about during this kind of change?
• What does a leader need to know with a change like this?
• Look at leveraging more senior members on the team to support you as the new leader.
• Help people get to know you as a leader professionally and personally.
• Create a bonding experience for the team members to take advantage of through a Q&A activity.
• Ensure that you answer the questions that the team has for you in the best way that you can.
• Provide as much transparency as you can so they feel comfortable and build trust with you.
