Onboarding programs at Transcom Serbia: breakfast meeting with the Country Manager
It is a fact that a company is only as good as its ability to retain its employees, and phenomenal visions are irrelevant without phenomenal people, right? It is up to the management and HR team to carry this responsibility on their shoulders, e.g. through various onboarding programs.
When it comes to new hires, there is no time for a second impression; if a new employee feels bad, in discord with the values and mission of the company, if he/she comes across chaos and unstructured processes, it is unlikely that they will form a favorable view of their new business environment.
Why is it important to constantly improve onboarding programs? The answer is quite straightforward, if we just look at the statistics and the latest research on this topic:
In a friendly atmosphere, new colleagues presented themselves in a completely informal and authentic way, exchanging first impressions about their work environment. After their introduction, I briefed them about the birth and growth of Transcom in Serbia, providing an overview of the company's history. I conveyed the mission and vision of the company, and stressed the need for strong teamwork and team spirit as a key requirement for companies and individuals to succeed.
We can have the best strategy, but if we do not get feedback from the people who work with us, and have a will to improve things based on this, it is impossible for any strategy to take off.
