Is it content overload?
This is where it all starts to come apart. Because people want to feel like they鈥檝e made the right decision. That the culture and values align with their own. That they believe in the story of the organisation and what it wants to achieve. And, that they are surrounded by a range of people that want everyone to be the best versions of themselves.
But, so often the onboarding experience consists of content overload. Information without context. Compliance without application.
Five Elements For Great Onboarding
We believe there are five different elements that, as part of your onboarding overhaul, drastically increase the likelihood of a new employee turning into a long-term high performing star.
Connect
Connect the new employee to their colleagues, and the organisation鈥檚 purpose. Have them deliberately build their community supported by their leader and buddy.
Empower
Empower the new employee to take the lead role in their induction within a supportive structure. Provide clarity and expectations for them, their buddy and leader.
Make it Practical
Make it practical, aim to have the new employee adding value to the organisation as soon as possible, providing authentic connections grounded in the actual work.
Make it Meaningful
Make it meaningful, put the customer at the centre of the onboarding, align the new employee鈥檚 purpose and values to that of your organisation and connect them to the organisation鈥檚 strategy.
Theme it
Theme it. Define a cohesive story that ties all your elements together and answers the questions: 鈥淲hy are we here?鈥�, 鈥淲hat are we working toward?鈥�, and 鈥淲here should I put my energy?鈥�
