Moving to new workplace may confuse us or make us tend to be quiet for being awkward in the new environment. To avoid it, here are 5 ways to adapt in your new workplace:
1. Know Everyone
Don’t be embarrassed to get to know the people around your working desk. Try to be relaxed and introduce yourself to them, and for once in a while try to chat with them to get to know each other. The people around you can add more spirit for you in working and it is also useful to expand your network.
2. Show Enthusiasm in Your Work
As a newbie, show enthusiasm in your working spirit. No matter how hard the job you are given, you must see it positively and don’t let it dishearten your working spirit. Join in your office social activities and events. Show achievements so your colleagues can see that they were right to choose you and not a disappointment.
3. Respect The Work Ethic in the Company
Remember that each company has its own culture and rules. Find out about it and follow them. However you are in a new company and work there now. Maintain your attitude and watch your language when you are in the office so people do not have negative impression on you.
4. Don’t Be Shy to Ask
Because everything is new for you, don’t be shy to ask anything to your colleagues, or even your boss. Especially when it is related to your job. It is better to ask than being reproved for doing mistakes.
5. Ask for Appraisal
After a month of work, ask for appraisal or evaluation from your boss. By getting feedback you can improve your work performance in order to do much better job.
