We will introduce some tips and etiquette to make a good impression when transferring personnel.
Hello!
He is the musician for HushTug.
The cherry blossoms have bloomed in Tokyo, and we can feel the arrival of spring. Spring is also a season of meetings and partings.
With the arrival of spring and the new fiscal year approaching, many people will be facing personnel changes and relocations.
So, this time we will introduce some points and etiquette to keep in mind to make a good impression when you are transferred.
If you're feeling rushed because you've been transferred, or if you're feeling nervous about your first transfer, be sure to take a look at this!
What to do when you receive notice of transfer and the key points
It can be sad to say goodbye to people who have helped you, or close colleagues or classmates, but make sure you work hard until the end and leave a good impression.
If you make a good impression on those who are left behind and their successors after your transfer, and ensure that they can do their jobs smoothly, your relationships with them in the future will also go well.
Once you receive notice of a personnel transfer, there are a few things you need to do, so we will introduce them one by one.
Business handover
Once you receive your transfer notice, the first thing you should do is take stock of your work, including ongoing tasks and pending issues, so that you can smoothly hand over your duties to your successor.
Once the transfer or relocation has been made known, the handover to your successor will begin.
Please note that whether the handover occurs after the notice or after the order is issued varies depending on the company, so be sure to follow your supervisor's instructions.
In addition, handover procedures to a successor are difficult to convey through phone calls or emails alone.
Whenever possible, meeting face-to-face to explain things will reduce the chances of mistakes and the burden on your successor.
Greetings
Once you are able to announce your transfer, start by calling your business partners to let them know.
After that, if time permits, make the time to pay your respects to business partners and customers who have been kind to you.
In such cases, it would be a good idea for your successor to accompany you on the visit to introduce himself/herself, as this will ensure a smoother handover and also provide a sense of security to the people you are visiting.
If for unavoidable reasons you are unable to come in to say goodbye, you will inform the new employee of your transfer via email.
In that case, expressing your gratitude for the past experience will help improve your impression.
Also, don't forget to say goodbye to your new employer.
If your new workplace is in the same building as your current workplace or is not far away, going there in person to say hello should ensure the transition goes smoothly.
If you are far away or simply don't have time, be sure to greet them by phone or email.
Tidying up your surroundings
While you have time, start organizing your surroundings little by little.
If possible, wipe down and clean your desk, locker, etc., so that your successor can take over comfortably and it also makes a good impression.
Also, if you hand over your work tools and documents to your successor, they will be pleased if you organize them so that everyone can see them.
Even after you've been transferred, if you make sure that those who stay behind and your successor can carry out their duties smoothly, people will want to work with you again.
What to do on the day of your transfer or on your final day
Greetings to current department
On your last day, be sure to take the time to say goodbye to your superiors and colleagues who have helped you.
If you are giving a speech at a morning assembly or similar event, it is a good idea to summarize what you want to say so that it can be spoken in about 2 to 3 minutes.
Also, if you talk about things like "stories from your department," "your enthusiasm for your new position," "an introduction to your successor," and "your gratitude for the past," in your speech, it will come across as polite and friendly, and will make a good impression.
At this time, you may want to express your gratitude by giving a gift (such as sweets), but if there are other people who are being transferred, it may be a good idea to discuss this with them as well.
Greetings to new employer
When you start a new department, there will always be occasions when you are asked to greet and introduce yourself.
In order to smoothly integrate at your new workplace, it is important to introduce yourself in a way that leaves a good impression.
When introducing yourself to your new workplace, it is a good idea to include your name as well as your previous experiences and career history.
Also, if you have any experience working at other companies before your previous job, telling them about it will make it easier for them to remember you.
It is also important to convey your enthusiasm for the new environment and your willingness to learn from those around you.
In addition, it is recommended that you mention your hobbies and personal topics, as this can serve as a conversation starter later.
Also, when you start work at your new workplace, it is important to remember the names of your boss and colleagues as quickly as possible.
Be proactive in communicating with people so that you can match their names with their faces.
Finally
How was it?
This time, we introduced some points and manners to keep in mind to make a good impression when transferring personnel.
To ensure you start work in a good mood at your new workplace, be sure to keep these points in mind and act accordingly.
I hope this will be of some help to those who are facing personnel changes.
Thank you for reading to the end.
