Final Boarding Call For Onboarding: You’re About To Take Off
According to Merriam-Webster, onboarding is the process by which a new employee learns the ropes and gets settled in. Facilitators and participants of an onboarding program know that the reality of onboarding is much more involved than its dictionary definition implies.
The idea of bringing someone on board to work in a specific role draws parallels to a passenger boarding an airplane. Once passengers board the plane, the flight staff welcomes them and introduces them to the airplane’s safety and emergency procedures before everyone aboard launches toward their destination with their personal items securely stowed. (Merriam Webster, n.d.)
Corporations face similar challenges with onboarding new hires. Companies have to familiarize new employees with policies and procedures, help the new hire understand the company culture all while helping them feel welcome within that culture. They must set expectations, ensure the person understands their role, and what they need to do in order to be happy and productive on their journey with the organization.
