Adjustments & Key Connections
Step 1: Initiate the Recon Process
Invite and Assess New Members: Send a connection invite to new team members and have them complete the initial assessment.
Select the person you are wanting to Recon: Navigate to your core connections area to find the new member. For example, in this tutorial, we'll use "Brad Lee" as the new team member.
Step 2: Recon Your Team Member
Conduct a Conversation: Sit down with the new member and discuss their preferences and dislikes.
Highlight Key Preferences and Dislikes: Identify the highest priority likes and dislikes. For Brad:
Likes: Praise, to-do lists, taking risks, hands-on tasks.
Dislikes: Being cooped up, indecisiveness, harsh people, wasting time (his biggest hot button).
Step 3: Document Adjustments
Select Key Adjustments:
Navigate to the "Connect Screen".
Notice any significant sequence gaps between you and the new team member.
Select a “Do” and a “Don’t” based on their preferences and dislikes.
Don’t: Avoid wasting Brad’s time.
Do: Provide him with hands-on tasks.
Step 4: Add to Key Connections
Add to Home Screen:
Tap the star icon above the team member’s name to add them to your home screen’s Key Connections section.
This will position Brad on your home screen, making it easier to remember the adjustments you need to make.
Step 5: Quick Access and Engagement
Access Connect Screen Quickly:
Use the Key Connections section to quickly access the Connect Screen by tapping the member's name. This allows for fast engagement and preparation when working with them.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you ensure effective communication and collaboration with new team members, helping accommodate their work style and preferences efficiently.
