Onboarding

”Well begun is half done” said Aristotle. And yet 30% of all new employees leave within 90 days of joining as per a survey from Jobvite. Clearly getting the onboarding process right can deliver big upsides.

Hit the ground running

A Gallup report states that only 12% of employees feel their company does a good job onboarding new team members, leaving 88% without an emotional bond with the company. The cost to a company is way more than what most realize. SHRM estimates that it will cost a company six to nine months of an employee’s salary to identify and onboard a replacement.

Making sure new hires feel welcomed and immediately appreciated, quickly developing a sense of purpose and belonging, needs careful planning and execution at many stages:

  • Stage 1: From offer to joining
  • Stage 2: First day on the job
  • Stage 3: First time meeting a manager and coworkers
  • Stage 4: First work projects and tasks
  • Stage 5: First opportunities to share their talents with the organization.

Through an optimum mix of technology and learning, FocusU partners with organizations to ensure that onboarding delivers on the promises made during the candidacy stage.

    FocusU has always made learning interesting. Topics are converted into activities and the learning from the activities are then discussed - which makes us relate to it in real time. The best part is there is no PPT and the team is always takes inputs for discussion. A facilitator is definitely more knowledgeable than the people who attend the training. The key is how you hold your intelligence within yourself and get down to the level of attendees.

    Thank you for a wonderful one day offsite on team building for our freshers. This is the first time we did such an intervention and I am very happy we chose FocusU to partner with us. The session has achieved its intended objective of driving the message of our core values, the need for team spirit, and has left the participants with a perspective about themselves that they perhaps did not have.

    I would like to thank FocusU team for organizing a perfect outbound for us. The team exercises were a beautiful combination of fun and learning. Probably the best way for colleagues to know each other in a short span of time. Innovative games and energizers which never got dull and kept everyone interested and energized at all times.

    We needed a competent, experienced, confident and flexible partner and FocusU performed with excellence. It was not easy to keep a group of highly experienced doctors and seasoned professionals engaged. FocusU team did a great job navigating the group with confidence. We all enjoyed and therefore learned through the process with lots of laughter, fun and new insights.

    The Leadership workshop helped all of us to take a step back and analyse ourselves on the kind of leadership traits we have and that we don’t have. How we could all become better leaders and help others grow along with us.

    FocusU was a simple Google search for me. Having said that, there were other training firms whose details also showed up. But right from the time that I established my first contact with them, there has not been an instance where I had to follow up with their team. Extremely proactive, understand their clients needs and the best part - they customize the training requirements really well!

    Thank you for an excellent senior management intervention (AGM – AVP level) using the Leadership Challenge construct. The program aimed to develop leaders embodying our brand. The intervention included conducting a diagnostic and designing the workshop to suit the need of the target audience, which FocusU did impeccably.
