How to get more out of an experienced hire!
Most mid to
large size firms have a training and development or on-boarding program for new
graduates – from Bachelor’s to PhD’s. This program or session gets them
acquired to the company, general role, departments and potential peers or
mentors. This gets them on the right track and begins to bridge them from
academic to work life. But what do you
do with someone joining your company after 5-10 years in the business world?
How do you on-board someone going from a technical to a business role? Do you
on-board someone who recently joined from an acquisition? Do you on-board a new
division in a growing business area? Most companies would say no.
