Employee Onboarding
Companies investing in employee engagement with ongoing training see a positive impact on revenue and profits
Companies that invest in extended formal onboarding programs see greater levels of employee retention and shortened time to productivity. Well-timed training with relevant content prepare new hires to reach individual goals and meet company expectations. The more quickly a new hire understands company culture, business operations and how his or her role impacts organizational goals, the more quickly the employee engages and performs.
