Increasing trust and credibility with a team as a new leader is essential. However, it's equally important for each team member to recognize your leadership qualities. Today, we’ll explore one of the most critical moments for any new leader—the first individual meeting with a team member.

You'll also discover how to align your team members’ personal goals with the company's objectives and some common pitfalls to avoid, such as rescheduling a meeting, imposing your agenda too early, or failing to listen to what drives your team members.
