Loading ...Hi, I am your new manager.
I don’t expect all of you to like me, and I probably wouldn’t be able to like you all the same.
We have a tough job ahead of us, and when we are moving forward, I’d like all of us to pull together.
I expect to make mistakes, and when I do, I’d like you to tell me straight. There is no value in talking behind my back.
If we make some mistakes but do well in many other things, we should still be ok. If you help me, and I make too many mistakes, I wouldn’t need your backbiting — I’d probably fire myself anyway.
And if I do that, I would rather us part with beautiful memories of working together.

Amen.

Excellent - once you’ve got their trust, and they figure out that you’re not a jerk - you could reward them with buying pizzas (or whatever) for the whole crew.
Nice.
