Webcast:
Now more than ever, businesses are spending exorbitant amounts of time and money to acquire the best talent. But hiring great people means very little if they never fully realize their potential or they decide to walk out the door within a few months. So how can companies effectively transform new hires into productive talent --and beyond to quickly become star perfomers-- engaged with the organization from day one? Successful organizations use relational onboarding to help newcomers establish a broad network of critical relationships. Through this network, newcomers can quickly locate the centers of knowledge, the key constituents, and the real issues they were hired to address. This webcast will examine how HR executives can make the shift from 'administrative' onboarding' to 'relational onboarding,' and how Corporate Social Networking technology can help build the network of connections integral to a new hire's and the company's success.
