I'm starting a new job in a weeks time - its a new role in a different company managering the Engineering division in an industry I have no detail knowledge of. I'm being hired on the basis of my management track record and, hopefully, my ability. My question is simply is there a podcast covering the best behaviour for the first few days/weeks in a new post. Good questions, culture, goals etc etc?? I've listened to almost all the casts now but have not come across this topic yet.......any pointers out there?

Gavin,

Congratulations on the new job.

You may also want to search the site for "90 days" for a few discussion threads related to getting started in your new job.

Best wishes.

Thanks all.

Working through your suggestions and making lots of notes on my new job 'mindmap' - boy they're going to think I'm on the ball.

All of this is such good stuff yet really not difficult.
