Beautiful ECD Question:
How do you want your new team member to feel when they join your team?
Step 1: Select the 3-5 black ECD cards you want your newly hired team member to feel when they start on your team.
Step 2: Select 3-5 white ECD cards that best describe how you don't want your new team member to feel when they join your team.
Step 3: Brainstorm ways to help your new team member feel those desired feelings and ways you can help your team member avoid feeling those undesired feelings.
2 Pieces of Content To Inspire

2. The Power of Small Wins
by Teresa M. Amabile and Steven J. Kramer
"The power of progress is fundamental to human nature, but few managers understand it or know how to leverage progress to boost motivation. When we think about progress, we often imagine how good it feels to achieve a long-term goal or experience a major breakthrough. These big wins are great—but they are relatively rare. The good news is that even small wins can boost inner work life tremendously."
