Talent Network

Your new hire has gone through a rigorous recruitment and selection process. They have the requisite skills, knowledge, experience and the right attitude. All evidence points to the fact that they are destined for success at your organization. While you are enthusiastic about the prospects for this new hire you curb your enthusiasm, because you are painfully aware of the reality that:

 

• One third of external hires are no longer with the organization after two years

• Less than one third of executives worldwide are positive about their onboarding experience

• Half of all hourly employees leave their new jobs within the first 100 days

An informal, ad-hoc, unstructured program is insufficient to mitigate against the very real prospect of transition failure. In order to translate your new hire's initial enthusiasm into a meaningful, long-term connection to the organization and to unlock their potential, you will need to develop an onboarding program that is formalized, thoughtful and strategic.

 

In this session, we will:

• Articulate and expound on the goals of onboarding

• Diagnose your onboarding strategy level

• Examine the four pillars of onboarding

• Explore onboarding best practices used at leading organizations to increase time to productivity and improve retention
