It is one of those areas that can cause more headache and aggravation if not handled properly.
Onboarding is not:
- Just sending someone a laptop and video to watch are not the answer.
- Just having meetings to have them is wasted time, and also counter productive.
- Having a new hire to reach out cold turkey to team members for help.
- Not setting time aside to get the team together to help improve chemistry.
Things to think about when onboarding:
- What is it that you want your new hire to accomplish in the onboarding cycle?
- How are you introducing team members and partners to welcome someone in?
- What sort of cadences are you putting, or have in place?
- How are you building chemistry with teammates?
