Successful onboarding can help deepen employee engagement, boost productivity, and reduce turnover. But failure to get off on the right foot with new hires can cause many to leave within months, squandering the high costs of recruiting top talent.

$28\%$ of workers will quit within $90$ days of starting a new job because they had a poor onboarding experience

Onboarding programs often get bogged down in frustrating cross$-$departmental manual processes. They must meet rising employee expectations and provide more benchmarking and performance measurement data. I will be eager to read your thoughts on this critical topic. What experiences have you had, good or bad? Have you ever had to onboard someone? This can also apply to new members of a club or organization. Have you been responsible for training someone in a new position$-$ that's onboarding? Onboarding can also be part of becoming a member of an organization or club. Share your thoughts.
