New Employee
Welcome to your career at Mayo Clinic, an organization annually ranked as one of Forbes magazine’s “America’s Best Employers”. If you or a family member just received an offer and is preparing for the first day, or is looking for resources during the first year with the organization, this page has a wide array of resources to help in the journey.
Engage with fellow new employees or ask a question by visiting our New Employee Connections group.
As a new employee, it is important to share ideas, listen to other’s ideas, and have meaningful conversations with your colleagues and supervisor.
According to Celeste Headlee, host of Georgia Public Broadcasting’s On Second Thought, “You want to enter every conversation assuming that you have something to learn.” A famed therapist, M. Scott Peck, says, “True listening requires a setting aside of one’s self, and sometimes that means setting aside your personal opinion. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will become less and less vulnerable and more and more likely to open up the inner recesses of their mind to the listener.”
For more great information on how to have meaningful conversations, watch Celeste Headlee in her TED Talk “10 Ways to Have a Better Conversation."
