I was recently asked by a friend who’s starting a new job on how he should prepare for it. I shared a 4 point process, the 4 As of Starting a New Job.

Assess, Articulate, Activate, Adapt

Assess what’s happening among your team, your company, your product, your industry and your clients.

Articulate what your plan is with your superior or subordinates.

Activate your plan. Don’t be all mouth and no trousers or in Malaysian parlance, NATO (No Action, Talk Only)

Adapt because even the best laid plans go awry when conditions change.
