MEGA SESSION Onboarding, Inboarding and Appreciation: How to Drastically Improve Retention, Engagement and Results

SHRM 2016 Annual Conference & Exposition
You will learn how to create an effective strategy for connecting new and existing employees to your organization’s mission.

Having an effective onboarding program is essential for every organization. Research shows 40% of new executives are pushed out, or quit within 90 days. 25% of the workforce has held their job for less than one year and 86% of new hires decide to leave or stay in the first six months. And, 79% of those who quit cite lack of appreciation as the main reason. This session will help you learn:

  • The importance of emotionally connecting new hires to the mission and vision of your organization, and the impact their role has on the recipient of the work. (Onboarding) 
  • How to effectively communicate an employee's connection to the mission and vision of your organization throughout various stages of their career and growth. (Inboarding) 
  • The significant role appreciation plays in attracting, retaining, and developing employees from day one on the job and beyond. (Appreciation)
