newcomer's
Fresh face's possession
Newcomer's is the possessive form of newcomer—someone who has recently arrived or joined a group.
It marks something as belonging to or associated with that person: a newcomer's perspective, a newcomer's enthusiasm.
The fresh viewpoint of newcomers is often valued precisely because they haven't yet absorbed established assumptions.
