I work freelance and am often in new work environments. I am not exactly shy but I am not the most outgoing person either so I am usually slightly uncomfortable in the beginning of a new assignment. What usually works for me is just making conversation with people who sit near me. Small talk like, hey how long have you been with the company? Where is the copy machine? If I go for coffee or to buy food, I will ask if anyone would like to walk with me or if anyone would like for me to bring them something. Often people go to lunch together and sometimes out for drinks after work. You might strike up conversation just by asking people for recommendations on happy hour or a good place for a salad, etc... You might just get invited to something that has already been planned. Also, you might try meetup.com and try to find an interest group in your area. Its a great way to meet new people. I am not sure where you are but I know it is an international organization. |

Hi PerDev.... First you can take some time, and go easy on yourself... avoid thinking you must or have to do something a certain way or in an ideal way... that only puts pressure on you and causes you not to accept yourself and in order to feel socially comfortable, accepting yourself is a requirement... First, just begin smiling! That will show you are friendly and approachable to other people... Then practice smiling and say "Hi!" .... And so on... If you'd like more advice just drop another post here...take care.... |
