Is your hiring and onboarding process costing you unnecessarily? Did you know….

What does yours do? And do you even have an onboarding program?
A strategic onboarding plan can dramatically impact your business. Therefore, it needs to be done right especially if it’s now being done remotely. Yes, there are challenges, but there are also simple, innovative ways to help new hires quickly learn the performance expectations of their new job; align their personal goals with that of the team; and integrate into your workplace culture. If that happens, it will result in higher job satisfaction and higher engagement; better job performance; and reduced turnover. it’s a win-win for everyone.
You have made your decision about whom to hire. You’ve gotten them excited about their new job. You’re excited about what they can bring to your team. Now what?
Onboarding is important because it introduces the new hire to the company’s culture and expectations as well as your department’s goals and key priorities. In addition, onboarding gives the employee the vital training and information needed to succeed in their new position. The sooner your new hires start feeling part of your team or department, the sooner they will start contributing at full capacity.
An onboarding program isn’t just a routine checklist; it should be a step-by-step program that makes the new hire, as well as the manager, confident they made the right choice and confident they can succeed in their new job. It’s a way to avoid buyer’s remorse.
Also, a new hire’s compatibility or culture fit will likely be determined during the onboarding process. This can save you the manager from a prolonged investment of your time and money into the wrong person. It’s also a win-win for everyone.
