Most onboarding is designed for those coming into an organization from the outside. Joining a new department/business unit or taking on a new leadership role presents many of the same challenges as joining a new organization/company. Increasingly, companies are adopting a similar strategy to set the stage for success of their internal talent advancing from within. Yet, there are some important differences.
Join us to explore what leading corporations are doing to ensure the success of those taking on new roles promoted from within. Our presenter has just revised his best-selling book on the subject to explicitly include a new chapter discussing this very subject. Those listening in will learn now, what others will be reading in March 2009.
