新官要慢烧三把火

When you take on a leadership role, it canbe tempting to prove yourself by making early decisions fast. But until you'refamiliar with how things work in the company, you're at risk of judgingprocesses and people too quickly. That's why it's important to manage your urgeto "do something." Instead of acting, focus on listening to, observing, andlearning from those around you. Take notes about what you hear, payingattention to when your assumptions about the company or your team are right,and when they're wrong. And make sure you talk to a variety of people. You maynot know yet who's a reliable source of information, so it's easy to be overlyinfluenced by one person's or one group's perspective. Once you feel confidentabout moving forward, use your new knowledge to select a critical area of focusfor the year. This will help people direct their efforts and evaluate progress— both yours and theirs.
