Build Relationships with People Outside Your Immediate Team Early

H howtolive.guide ·

Your direct team is your daily reality, but your career lives in the wider organization. Reach out to people in other departments -- grab coffee, attend cross-functional meetings, or offer to help on a project outside your scope. These connections give you perspective, make collaboration smoother when projects overlap, and create advocates who know your work even when your direct manager isn't in the room.

The point
Cross-team relationships give you visibility, broader perspective, and allies that your immediate team alone cannot provide.
