Linkedin can you help? Three new starters joining us this August but before they arrive, we have a challenge to solve. Our latest staff away day highlighted that our onboarding is a bit dry 🥱 We want to find the sweet spot between getting the boring-but-necessary admin done (expenses, booking leave) and making Day 1 incredibly engaging... Our goal? Less "death by PowerPoint", and more genuine engagement and connection. To my network: What is the most memorable, creative, or genuinely helpful thing you’ve experienced or observed in an onboarding process? 💡 What made it stand out? How did they welcome you without drowning you in paperwork?
