The first days of a new job are a lot. There is so much to learn, so many people to meet, and most onboarding is designed to get someone ramped up fast. What it rarely makes room for is getting to know the person. The Foundation Conversation is a simple framework I used with every new direct report. Ninety minutes, six questions, and a conversation that changes how two people work together from day one. Download it and try it with your next hire.
