The art and science of starting a new job.
To be successful in a new job out-of-town, physician executives need to develop a plan for a smooth transition into the organization. A checklist to prepare yourself for the new position should include: Updating your research; (2) staying in close contact with your new boss; (3) visiting the office; (4) hiring your own support person; (5) planning the first week; (6) telling the troops how to manage you; (7) making early decisions; and (8) meeting your peers. The focus should be on the job and connecting with your new boss, medical staff, and coworkers--and not exclusively on the environment of your home-to-be.
