Don’t be grandiose about making changes or being different. Don’t do too much to introduce or seem like you rely on your experience because it’s probably a lot less valuable than you think. Try to take in the experience in front of you as much as your own.

For example, I’ve had a number of SVMs come in with experience at domestic or Japanese brands… German luxury cars and customers aren’t the same.

Don’t make yourself a big list of things to fix, but when small, but achievable fixes are possible, jump on them, check them off the list to show you take action.

This is going to sound goofy… but watch the first season of Ted Lasso.
