More than just orientation

Hi there.  Thanks for visiting the website for my company, Personnel Onboarding Solutions.


Now, you may be wondering, "Just what do Erik and his crew do?".  Well, before I answer that for you, let's take a moment to have a talk about organisational socialisation.


Organisational socialisation is the process by which a person secures relevant job skills, acquires a functional level of organisational understanding, attains supportive social interactions with coworkers, and generally accepts the established ways of a particular organisation.  Organisational socialisation is vital due to the prevalence of reorganising many organisations are facing. 


Organisations need to understand organisational socialisation, and the effects of undertaking these employment practices poorly.  For example, successful employee socialisation has been linked to increased commitment, job satisfaction, intentions to remain with the organisation, and job performance. However, individuals (employees) vary in personality terms, as to how proactive they are in their search for organisational information.
OK, but what about onboarding?  Well, onboarding is the process of helping new employees become productive members of an organisation.


This is where Personnel Onboarding Solutions comes in.  As an expert in the field of organisational socialisation, we can take the stress out of your organisation's induction processes for new employees.  Personnel Onboarding Solutions will lead the way in acquiring, accommodating, assimilating and accelerating new users into your system, culture or methodology.  


What most companies provide to their new employees is little more than a pen, notebook, papers to read and a point in the direction of the tearoom and bathroom.  We at Personnel Onboarding Solutions offer so much more than just 'induction' or 'orientation'.  We recognise the importance of making the most of the "honeymoon" stage of an individuals employment relationship.


We take new employees through the stages known as "prepare, orient, integrate and excel", with an emphasis during each phase of the process upon "cultural mastery", "relationship development", "early career support" and "strategy immersion and direction".  This system inverts the traditional model of orientation, where content is presented upon arrival and instead engineers content after context, to promote greater mastery due to greater ability of the new employee to absorb.  This method also ensures that the new employee has reinforcement throughout the full term of the first year of employment and that excitement builds for career advancement as new skills are acquired.


Effective onboarding of new employees can be one of the most important contributions any hiring manager, direct supervisor or human resources professional can make to long-term organisational success, because onboarding done right can improve productivity and employee retention, and build shared corporate culture.


So, don't just leave your new employees in the hands of a 10 year old folder with an out of date and confusing range of documents.  Call Erik and see how his team can ensure that the initial phase of your new employees tenure is their most productive.
