About this workshop
After You Hire: Orientation, Onboarding and Retention focuses on what happens after a candidate accepts the job. Explore the difference between orientation and onboarding and learn how the first year of employment can help move a new hire from a newly hired candidate to a fully integrated, engaged, and loyal team member.
This workshop is part of The Talent Blueprint: From Attraction to Retention, a four-part series covering the essential pillars of modern talent management. Each session is designed to stand alone, so you can attend this workshop individually or participate in the full series.

Create a more intentional approach to integrating new hires into your team and company culture.

Who should attend
This workshop is designed for small business owners, entrepreneurs, and business leaders who want to improve the experience of new and existing employees. It is especially relevant for businesses looking to strengthen onboarding, increase engagement, and create an environment that encourages employees to stay and contribute to the company's success.
What you’ll walk away with
You will leave with practical strategies for creating a stronger transition from new hire to fully integrated team member. You will also gain ideas for improving the first-year employee experience in ways that can support engagement, retention, and positive representation of your company in the broader community.
