Does Your Organization Need An Anti-Rejection Drug?
No, our blog hasn't been hacked by a medical bot.
But a newly hired leader in your organization IS a lot like transplanting an organ into a body.
Quick medical background:
When you get a kidney transplant, your system knows that the new kidney was not originally part of your body. Your body will therefore attack the new kidney, no matter how nice (or how needed) the new kidney is. Despite the new kidney being brought in to save your body, that same body views the new kidney as a threat and tries to get rid of it in any way it can. To prevent this from happening, your doctor will therefore prescribe you anti-rejection drugs. Another way to think of anti-rejection is assimilation. Essentially these drugs are assimilating the new organ to your body and vice versa.
And hiring is like medicine, how?
Whenever someone has an organ transplant (hires a new leader), they not only have to find the perfect donor (candidate) and go through a potentially rigorous surgery (onboarding), but they have to also take anti-rejection drug (FromJump’s app) for the rest of their lives (first 100-days) to prevent their immune system from rejecting the new organ (failure to assimilate).
FromJump™ is the anti-rejection drug needed to assimilate newly-hired leaders transplanting into your organization.
By becoming aware of how (and why) their team, the organization, and the industry operates, a new hire will be able to Lead in context. With this awareness, they’ll be able to Activate their team. This context will also allow them to Uncover pain points and Unlock opportunities in order to increase productivity. As they settle in and Nurture key relationships, they’ll feel less like a transplant and more like the OG. Cementing a 100-day plan and Honing a management strategy will enable short-term and long-term assimilation.
Our L.A.U.N.C.H. model gets a new leader up to speed in your organization to reduce risk, to prevent them being “rejected” by their team or your organization, and to ensure a smooth transplant. Does your organization need this boost?
