From First Day to Full Speed: Onboarding That Actually Works

From First Day to Full Speed: Onboarding That Actually Works
How many new hires have you watched struggle through their first weeks, drowning in information dumps and unclear expectations?

Great onboarding can make or break employee retention and performance.

What we'll cover in 50 minutes:

• Why traditional onboarding creates overwhelmed, disengaged employees
• The psychology of effective integration (it's not about more information)
• Building onboarding that creates confident, productive team members
• Common onboarding mistakes that kill early engagement
• A practical framework you can implement immediately

Who should attend:
HR professionals, managers who onboard new team members, and anyone responsible for new hire success.

What you'll leave with:
A clear onboarding strategy that reduces time-to-productivity and increases new hire satisfaction. Whether you're designing company-wide programs or just want to onboard your next team member better, you'll get actionable insights.

What to bring: A pen and paper for exercises and note-taking.

Format: Interactive session with real onboarding scenarios. We'll analyze what works, what doesn't, and build practical solutions together.

A little about me:
I'm the founder of InHouse Trainers, a consultancy focused on solving workplace learning challenges. I've experienced onboarding from both sides - as someone who's been through multiple corporate onboarding processes and as someone who's had to quickly integrate into new environments.

I understand what makes new employees feel confident versus confused.

Now I help organizations create onboarding experiences that actually set people up for success, not just check compliance boxes.

Note:

• This is about sharing effective onboarding strategies - not selling you services.
• This session will be on Zoom and will be recorded.
