Employee Onboarding
Whether you're a large brand name corporation with thousands of employees or a small start-up with 2 employees, all businesses have a similar goal: to attract talented employees and to keep them motivated to continuously contribute to the success of the business. Onboarding is a game changer that HR needs to execute well.
The goal of a good onboarding program is to build bonds between the employer and employee that are deep, meaningful, and strong. The stronger the emotional bonds the greater return on investment.
Successful onboarding programs share certain elements that HR managers should keep in mind when designing one
VALUE OF ONBOARDING
Both, new hires and top executives, onboarding positive payoff - such as lower turnover and higher productivity. Good programs make employee feel valued, help them to fit in and allow them to begin making quality contributions more quickly.
COMPANY CULTURE
New employees need to learn the company's norms, policies and traditions. Provide them with overview of the company's philosophy, operating procedures, work styles, expectations and definitions of what's "normal".
ADULT LEARNING PRINCIPLES
Adult learning is so much more complex than the traditional one and requires a completely different approach while implementing cognitive and behavioural activities for each role.
SPECIFICS
Onboarding programs should have measurable objectives that focus on developing specific knowledge skills and attitudes. Poor programs overload employee with more information that they can digest or put to immediate use. Good programs cover not only facts but also particular skills.
OUTSOURCING YOUR ONBOARDING IS A SMART AND STRATEGIC MOVE
Companies are turning to their HR outsourcing vendors for innovative services. In-house departments are stretched with handling day-to-day issues, so there is rarely time left for strategic initiatives or a budget for making mistakes in exploring unknown areas.
