"Introduce" is a transitive action verb meaning, among other things, to cause to be acquainted. Just giving someone a list of people to meet and hoping something happens is not enough to cause that person to be acquainted with anyone.
In our book Onboarding - How to Get Your New Employees Up to Speed in Half the Time we talk about assimilation in depth. Drawing on work by Robert Cross, we lay out the importance of making introductions to key people in the formal and informal networks in an organization (instead of all people). It's important to identify central connectors and brokers and then connect your new employees to them with proactive full introductions.
