We helped a manufacturer engineer a preboarding and onboarding process that could be applied and customized to different offices and plants around the globe. Preboarding involves many different departments and contributors, so it was important to get buy-in from a variety of stakeholders. The onboarding experience itself was structured around a two-day orientation led by HR, followed by a three-month, self-paced new hire curriculum made up of online videos, elearning modules, and assessments as well as in-person meetings, manager coaching, and peer mentoring. The experience was documented in an Onboarding Guide document given to all new hires.
