You got the budget for it, you hired new people, now what? Even though the prospect of having more hands on deck is appealing, some team leaders are at a loss as to how to ensure that the new hires will fit in with the existing team and culture.
That’s where StrengthsFinder® can come in as a highly effective team building tool…
StrengthsFinder® For New Hires
Whether you have one new employee or a group of them, the StrengthsFinder® personality test can help improve the new hire onboarding process. This assessment test consists of 177 questions and takes about 35-45 minutes to complete online. From the results of the test, an individual’s top 5 strengths (out of 34 strengths) are identified.
Challenges Of Introducing New Hires To A Team
Knowing these strengths can help overcome some of the challenges that new employees face, including:
- cultural fit
- role clarity
- team dynamics
- communication
- management of expectations
- knowledge transfer
StrengthsFinder® Helps New Hires
StrengthsFinder® can help individuals identify and articulate their strengths, which can bolster their self-confidence as they step into a new job. With the self-awareness that StrengthsFinder® brings, people are better able to articulate what they do best during interactions with colleagues and managers, which makes it more natural for them to communicate their potential contributions.
StrengthsFinder® Helps Other Team Members
When strengths are shared among the team members, the process of getting to know each other speeds up and people tend to communicate and collaborate better (with the new team members and everyone else).
StrengthsFinder® Helps Leaders And Managers
By knowing the individual strengths of everyone on their team, leaders and managers can introduce new hires by highlighting their unique attributes and those of the other team members. Managers can effectively assign roles and tasks that align with people’s strengths, and they can also make more productive mentoring matches.
