28 June 2023
You just joined a company, you know you need to start working, but you have no idea where to start or who to talk to since everyone is remote. That landing point is common for a lot of people these days. That is compounded for those joining a startup or rapidly scaling organization. It makes for some hairy situations when you don’t know where your resources are coming from and leads to frustrating project development.
However there is a way to figure your way out of that mess. You can learn a lot if you have an open mind and start searching for information with a Discovery process. Discovery has helped me learn about my organization, the status of our projects, who runs different teams, where to get approvals and find the resources to get started on important work. This talk provides all the best practices I have used with Discovery to plan ahead for onboarding, reaching out to teams about their scope of work, where our content is stored and what is available right now to get started on project work quickly and efficiently.
