When corporate onboarding falls short, assign one person to be a new hire's daily touchstone: a morning email and an evening call, text, or video. This stopgap bridges gaps in the process and helps people feel supported from day one.
So a couple things to be aware of in onboarding is that you can't— you don't always control corporate onboarding. Sometimes you do, and I— we haven't gotten deep enough to know whether you do or you're not, or whether you do or you don't. But if you don't and there are challenges, you can create stopgaps that actually improve it. Having someone on the team that's actually responsible for being a go-to person during the entire process. That every single morning sends an email and every single, single evening makes a call or sends a text or shoots a video. That's a stopgap.
