How to make a clear onboarding plan
Streams straight from the publisher. podnod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
You have a new team member starting tomorrow and no plan for what to do. No big deal, right?
Welllll....
In this episode, I talk about the importance of having a plan for onboarding new team members, and share three simple things you can do right away to create a more seamless experience, even if you have someone starting literally tomorrow.
Don't wing it - having a clear onboarding plan sets the tone for that person to be focused on the right things from day one and feel setup for success long term.
