How do you manage a new team filled with disgruntled employees? I swear some days I want to write back on some emails - who hurt you?

Acknowledge what they have been through. Ask them what they need to make them feel more comfortable. Figure out who can be bright back from the edge. Whoever can’t needs to be worked out, generously, over time. A

First, you start out by actually getting to know them. Sounds like you’re new to all of them, and have no idea what actually makes them tick.

Who's hires disgruntled employees.? Seriously, are the pissed off or what? Glee for a new job ? What happened. Have fun.

They want feel heard. Acknowledge their struggles. Work on getting them to a solution oriented mindset to turn things around. But if you’re inheriting a disgruntled team it’ll take time. First hear them out and get a plan to turn it around.

Engage them individually and as a team. Find ways to really listen to them, make them feel seen and heard, and try to find out what their struggles or issues might be. Show them early and often that you are there to support them. They will eventually come around. The bad apples will fall from the tree, and you will come to know which ones are tainting the rest.

Need your help 🐠 I feel like I‘m always sick (flue like symptoms ~2x per month).

Any advice on what tests I can ask for that helped you in the past? Any recommendations for a more complete checkup in Manhattan (ideally covered by most insurances)? TIA!
