There is no denying the power of first impressions – however, when it comes to how we on-board new employees, we often miss huge opportunities to create an initial impression that sets them up for success right from the start, and long into the future.
In this open discussion, Brent Robertson of Future Design Firm, Fathom, will be sharing his experience helping organizations create singular and powerful on-boarding experiences where new employees not only become integrated and productive faster, but are inspired to grow and develop their value over time.
Attendees will leave this discussion with:
- A multi-dimensional lens to think through when designing on-boarding experiences
- Key things to include that will allow you to deliver a powerful experience
- Applicable ideas from real-world client examples.
Come with your challenges and questions, leave with a new frame to take action.
