In this Playbook Playlist, we will break out a 90-day Onboarding plan using the LEON Playbook Library to help you reduce stress and optimize learning for your new employees.‍

How Much Does Bad Onboarding Cost

A report from the Harvard Business Review shows that:

  • Nearly 33% of employees start looking for a new job within their first six months at their new job
  • Another 23% leave before their first anniversary.

Most business owners know that it costs much more and takes more time to hire a new employee than retaining a current one. Consider the amount of money lost if more than half of your employees leave within a year of being hired.

According to this report, it's anywhere from 100% – 300% of each employee's salary.

The stress of onboarding

The Karolinska Institute in Stockholm examined the onboarding process of new professionals.

The study covered performance, emotions, and challenges arising in the first year of employment. The results showed that organizations with effective onboarding programs are more successful than those without successful onboarding.

The key is happier employees.

Petter Gustavsson, Author and Psychology Professor, says:

The initial period at a new workplace is associated with a steep learning curve and stressful moments. This type of stress can positively impact energy levels and learning. But, it might also lead to a lack of recovery and a reduced ability to learn. Many employers recognize this and provide their employees with onboarding programs to ensure the best possible start."

Enter the LEON Onboarding Playlist

This Playbook Playlist helps super-power your internal onboarding process and reduces the stress impact on your new employees. In addition, this Playlist will help foster an environment of psychological safety while also reducing the negative cost associated with starting a new career or job.

We want to ensure that your new team members start their new roles with a solid base of positive stress to build on as they progress through the next 90 days.

This solid base can allow for better skill acquisition, improved team alignment, and a faster and more successful ramp-up for your new employees.

‍

‍

Month one

‍This month will have a support focus. The goal is to down-regulate stress and help your new teammates adapt and learn in a psychologically safe environment.

‍

Work stress is applied more generally, with a particular emphasis placed on relationship building and adapting to team culture.

‍

Month two

‍Month two starts adding a mixture of support and challenge Playbooks. The goal is to begin adding stress while we maintain focus on team building and learning.

‍

In addition, we will start working towards more specific on-the-job training this month while still creating positive and supportive relationships.

Month three

‍The final month of onboarding focuses on improving performance, resiliency, and applying new skills to the job role with challenge Playbooks.

‍

Month three is where we introduce "real-world" stress and actual live training into the employee onboarding experience.

‍

The goal is to emphasize understanding how the new role works and day-to-day expectations, including goal setting and KPIs.
