Mike and Tracy speak about Bridging the Gap in OnBoarding. As leaders, we invest an incredible amount of time in hiring just the right people, but often skip the most important step: On-Boarding. Whether welcoming a new member of the team to your company, or a new team member from within your organization, a well-planned onboarding process makes an employee feel valued, welcome, and most importantly equips them to succeed in their role from day 1. Show Highlights Tracy & Mike dive into onboarding, what it is, what is included, and how it supports team members. We cover how you can use onboarding to support team members that are new to the organization or just new to your team. We answer a few common questions about onboarding.
