Hello Leaders, I still remember my first day at what I hoped would be my dream job at a ski resort. The vibrant atmosphere of the lodge, the rustic charm of the interiors, the muted conversations of professionals and guests alike. Everything seemed perfect. But amidst this inviting ambiance, my onboarding lasted a mere 30 minutes. Thirty minutes to be shown around, handed a few papers, and given a pat on the back with a generic, "Welcome aboard!" -Erin Robison, |
"Welcome aboard!" We often hear this term when someone joins an organization. But what happens next? Does the journey remain as welcoming as the greeting, or does it become an overwhelming maze? Enter the process of onboarding. Why is Onboarding Important?The importance of a robust onboarding process cannot be overstated. It serves as the foundation for an employee’s tenure with an organization. When done right, it can:

A big shout-out to Nikola Jokić of the Denver Nuggets; this man absolutely fascinates me. There’s something about the way he behaves on and off the court that I deeply admire and respect.

I admire how true...
I have not been out much over the last few weeks, other than to physical therapy appointments, but I am very grateful to live in such a beautiful place.
