You have to become part of the team and evolve it from the inside."   “If you're onboarding somebody who's working remotely, you've got to be incredibly deliberate and invest so much time in building the relationships."   "Give them the time, give them clarity of direction, give them the resources, and then eventually give them the authority they needed to do what they needed to do."   "All that matters is relationships. Any question, any meeting, you know, the answer to any question is you're caring about building relationships."   "Acquire them in the way that's going to work going forward, accommodate them so that they can do work, assimilate them so they can work with others, and then stick with it and help them accelerate."   "Ultimately, culture is the way people behave, the way they relate, their attitudes, their values, the environment. What's different with remote work is how deliberate you have to be about relationships."

Every day, people move into new roles but things don’t work quite right. In fact, 40% of them bomb. That’s why George Bradt started PrimeGenesis in 2002. Following successful careers at Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Procter & Gamble - and degrees from Harvard & Wharton - he knew there had to be a better way. George wanted to help new leaders move successfully into their roles. And he’s led the revolution in how people start new jobs on the right foot. Along the way, he’s learned how new leaders can ramp in 3 months instead of the typical 6-12 months. And reduce the 18-month failure rates from 40% to 5%.
