Employee
Onboarding
Now that your
new employee is hired, roll-out the red carpet.
New employee success is often
determined in the first few weeks on the job. In the talent
management universe, the new employee orientation and
mainstreaming process is known as "Employee Onboarding."
Keep in mind that you never get a second chance to make a first
impression.
Your new employee integration process
is a make 'em or break 'em experience for a new employee. Your business should make absolutely sure that new
fires feel welcomed, valued, and prepared for what lies ahead
during your new employee orientation or onboarding process.
Onboarding
New Employees with their Managers
Much of the new employee's success
relies on the relationship between the new employee and their
manager. We have heard for years that people don't leave
companies, they leave their managers. In most cases managers do
not make a conscious decision to have a poor relationship with
their direct reports. Most often it is likely due to the
pressures and "other" distractions that the manager is
dealing with so the time is not "found" to invest in
building effective understanding and relationships with the
team. This is especially true when employees are new to the
organization.
It is critical, however, during
onboarding programs that managers and new employees understand
one another in terms of:
There is an unrealistic expectation
that all leaders/managers should have "management
radar" and understand the type of management style new
employees prefer. The disconnect between employees and their
managers can create a toxic environment and lead to low morale,
low employee engagement and low retention levels.
Helping
Managers Succeed in Employee Onboarding with the TriMetrix
System
Catalyst Performance Systems' talent
management tools fit easily into any onboarding programs at your
organization. If your organization doesn't currently complete a
new employee onboarding process, the our tools can be used as a
guide to help with this process. Our tools focus on helping
managers and employees understand the communication needs,
motivators and personal talents of the new employee through the
TriMetrix System.
Real talent lies below the surface – it's also where you'll
find potential problems that can blow up later on. The TriMetrix
assessment process goes beyond standard behavior-based
assessments to uncover what's driving behavior. It's different
from other assessments because it measures three vital
dimensions:
1. Behavior (on the outside)
2. Personal skills (below the
surface)
3. Values (the very core of an
individual's being)
Based
