Integration of a new employee into the team is an important stage in achieving harmony for both the company and the employee. The quicker and better the adaptation process, the sooner the new team member will be able to start bringing value. If this stage of adaptation is not paid attention to in a qualitative and systematic way, it may turn out that the person has already been working for a whole year, but still does not know something ” he does not know ” he has not been shown ” or he ” depends” on some other people… In this article we will consider several effective ways to help a new employee to adapt quickly and comfortably.
Clear introduction: Provide a detailed introduction to the company, its culture, values, and structure. Before the new employee arrives, hold an information session where you talk about the firm about, its values, culture, and basic work processes. This will help the new employee better understand the team he or she is working with and what to adhere to in their work. It is better to convey the value of the client, the value of harmony between employees, and the importance of completing reports (what is really important in your company and what makes the company profitable).
Training and support: Provide the necessary training and support to enable the new employee to learn his or her responsibilities. It’s important to strike a balance between training and access to independent learning opportunities Mentoring: Assign a mentor to help the new employee navigate the company and answer questions. .
Team integration: Help the employee to integrate into the team by organising meetings and events to get to know colleagues. But here, in our opinion, it is necessary to accurately identify the person on the introvert-extrovert scale – how much expression of any part of him/her he/she has. Why is this important?! Simply because, for example, an introvert will get tired and close down even more when actively integrating. Whereas if you give him the opportunity to express himself, he will undoubtedly integrate into the team much better and more comfortably over time!
Feedback: Regularly discuss the new employee’s progress and provide feedback
Access to resources: Provide access to the necessary resources and tools to enable the employee to do their job effectively. It is much more important to make the accounting programmes as transparent as possible from the start, so that the person can feel self-sufficient and autonomous from day one. Do you know companies in which, in order to achieve some operational and often very simple task, you have to contact a whole chain of employees, many of whom are on holiday or somewhere else?
Offer help and support in dealing with problems and difficulties that arise. Regularly, during the first few weeks, assess the adaptation process and make adjustments if necessary.
Often, the person himself willingly participates in the feedback, and the most important thing is to create a mutually beneficial and mutually comfortable co-operation from the beginning!
With these steps, you can ensure that the new employee adapts quickly and effectively to the new job.

"To solve problems effectively, we must see the whole system, not just the isolated parts. Systemic thinking helps us understand the bigger picture and make decisions that support long-term success."

"Systemic thinking enables us to see the interconnectedness of all parts of a system, allowing us to address problems at their root rather than just treating symptoms...
