How to make friends at work
Often we make a decision to join new teams at work or outside work. One thing that we should remember is that we should last long in the group, which means one should know how to be part of the group and get going :) .... however, more so we tend to lose connections with people.
Well here are few things that you should do to make friends at work, keep reading the following
1) Dress Well
2) Greet everyone every day, a smile doesn't harm you, but you will gain in the near future
3) Understand the dynamics of the group, how diverse is the group in terms of nativity, gender, culture, technical skills etc.,
4) Be a part of the group, be like them, be a Roman in Rome
5) Connect with the group outside work area as well, personal bonding helps improve relationships
6) Do speak and create positive vibes when you are in the group, speak up for yourself and ensure you are heard
7) Speak to each person in the group separately, have a personal connection with everyone face to face, if you are working in a team where few of them are virtual, then these members have to be contacted first every day, remember you are new to the group and they are not!
8) Keep assessing your self and see if you are fitting the group, do this every day
9) People like to eat and move along...try getting some good food items and share it with all
10) Protect the group when someone is coming back at them
11) Speak the same language, suggestions or feedback about anything on this group to anyone and say positive things only
12) Create a group chat or wapp groups etc to keep the interest of the group going and to get connected well
Good Luck!.
