Why Your Business Can’t Afford an Outdated Onboarding Process

Onboarding sets the precedent for a new hire’s entire experience. Unfortunately, only 12% of employees strongly agree their company has an effective new hire onboarding process, according to Gallup.

The onboarding process doesn’t have to work against engagement. But positioning it as a tool to excite employees about their future requires us to redefine what it means. The process shouldn’t be a generic step that’s boring for employees. Rather, it should be the pivotal moment when new employees:

• adopt the company vision
• learn about their role
• commit to their purpose

So how do companies capture onboarding’s potential and transform it to a platform for engagement?
