Making a good first impression can make or break the decision for a client to buy from you. Research shows that people make 11 decisions about you within the first seven seconds of meeting you.
The same holds true with onboarding new employees in an organization. Time and time again we hear about disjointed, non-existent or even nightmarish onboarding experiences.
Our next Coffee, Chat, and Contacts will focus on onboarding training and education.
Think about what you do now when introducing a new employee to your organization or in your own department.
What do you do great? What needs fine tuning?
Bring your best practices or experiences to share with colleagues on Friday, February 3rd.
Facilitator: Luann Spaethe, Key Bank
Looking forward to seeing you there!
