The biggest mistake you can make would be to try and impress everybody. They will see right through your charade and label you as phony, or a "brown nose" (slang for someone who has their nose so close to the boss's butt that it is colored brown)

You have been hired to work for your company, so OBVIOUSLY someone sees that you have the talent and the skill required to do your job. Take that to heart and gain some confidence in yourself.

Also, make concerted effort to listen to everybody. Make certain that before you speak, you repeat what they say to make it clear that you understand what they are saying. Show patience, and smile. Those are two qualities often lacking in the workplace, and they will get you far.

Listening will help you communicate better. In fact, if you prove that you are a competent listener, you will find that others will do more talking than you do. People like to voice their opinions more than they like to accept the opinions of others. If you are responsible for a team of 20 individuals, prove to them you are willing to listen by simply doing so.

Also understand that of course people who have twenty years invested into a company may not be so warm to you- you are the stranger to them, and you have to prove yourself. Do so by showing that you aren't trying to reinvent the wheel- you aren't trying to change anything without their input.

Ask everyone what they like and dislike about their jobs. Learn their names. Say hello.

Most of all, be PATIENT.

Again, you were hired by the company, so you must have the skills. You cannot expect to reasonably know everyone within a few weeks. Don't change your persona. Eventually, everyone will accept you.

you will have to change your personality traits.
become a peoples person.
dont try too hard to strike a cord with them
show them that you are worth your wieght and your respect them and you need them.
sit the social leader of the group and talk to him in a way that he feels you need him, he will force the others to cooperate.
one more thing , before you leave home every morning take off the goddam MBA at home, you have wasted 2 years of your life and added a title to your name which means nothing for you just puts your head in the air without adding any substance to you.

even a peon in that office who has been there for 20 years knows more about that company than you and your MBA.
you have to explain to your subordinates that you need them to conrtibute in running the company and really you do need them

so make the need clear to them.
