Enhancing the New Hire Training Experience with Gamification:

Companies invest heavily in hiring new employees, which is one reason why it is so important to have an effective training program. Each new employee will represent the company’s brand, displaying their culture and values, as well as being expected to perform at a required level in their job.

The Onboarding of the New Employee including New Employee Orientation

Meet Joe from Toronto, Ontario. Joe has just started with his new company and he is nervous. He is nervous about how he will get along with his new boss, his new colleagues and what it will be like. Most new recruits go through this kind of thought process when it comes to making a new start with a new company. It can be an unnerving time. Forty percent of employees who left their jobs voluntarily in 2013 did so within six months of starting in the position, according to Equifax. Did you know a training company can help in this area? One such way is by having a training consultant design an onboarding program to ensure that new employees are effectively welcomed to the company and the team.

Be the Boss Everyone Wants to Work For!

Posted by Ashley White on Dec 29, 2015 9:45:00 AM

Our expert management training consultants have conducted studies to determine the reasons that employees leave their jobs. Most reasons point squarely to their bosses:

  • 39% said their supervisors didn’t keep their promises.

  • 37% said their supervisors failed to give credit when due.

  • 31% said their supervisors gave them the “silent treatment.”

  • 27% said their supervisors made negative comments about them to others.

  • 23% said their supervisors blamed others to cover up their own mistakes or embarrassment.

As a result, employees reported feeling more tension, mistrust, and exhaustion, and were less satisfied and less likely to take on additional tasks or work longer hours. In other words, supervisors directly affect their employees’ productivity and satisfaction in the workplace.

There are many different behavior styles that you should be aware of as a boss, and recognizing your own allows you to adjust your behavior to meet others’ needs. Download our free Behavioral Style Guide today!
