Almost half of the companies we work with say their onboarding experience is inconsistent across their organization. As HR teams are shifting their mindsets from a process-driven to an experience-driven approach, it’s difficult to ensure consistency across different managers, divisions and locations.

Nailing the moments that matter throughout the onboarding process for each new hire is crucial – it boosts the new hire’s engagement, and also, the whole team’s productivity, performance and retention.

In fact, 79% of employees say they would have settled into a new role quicker had there been a better process with more preparation, support and engagement. But delivering personalized moments that WOW, for every employee comes with its challenges.

In this webcast, Ashley Olson (LinkedIn profile) Marketing Manager – Americas, Nicole Candey (LinkedIn profile) Customer Success Manager – Americas & Abby Rodriguez  (LinkedIn profile) will share how they use technology to deliver consistent onboarding experiences that WOW their new hires – an approach that works no matter the size of your organization.

They will tackle the following:

• How to build engaging onboarding experiences that WOW new hires
• How to drive global consistency while considering local nuances across teams, offices and regions
• How to structure an onboarding program that engages new employees and managers
• How to both personalize and automate pre-boarding and onboarding processes for each new hire
