GUIDING THOUGHTS

  • Take time to learn. Don't get sucked into the minutia of decision-making or project involvement too early - there will be plenty of time for that later. In your first 30 days, try to focus on getting comfortable and learning how things work.

  • Invest in relationships. By day 60, you'll be in execution mode. In your first two months, spend as much time as you can getting to know people and forming relationships.

  • Don't be afraid to ask. No one expects you to know how things at UME work right away. Take advantage of that and ask for help when you need it.
