- Build a relationship with each team member, get to know them, and get them to know you. So we understand each other, and how we think.
- Let that sit for a bit, while the team member validates your actions. Do you do what you say?
- Set the expectations, and lay down goals.
- Make sure they understand that you are there to help them achieve what they want.
- Make sure that you provide value to their work. At the end, if you have to leave, you will be missed.
