Hello Everyone!
We are considering outbound programs as a part of our induction process. We would like some information on outdoor programs as a part of learning and development. Team building is only one of our objectives. We would like to focus on creativity, introspection, and leadership as key learnings.
I want to know how sustainable this model of induction is from a long-term perspective. Any thoughts/information will be appreciated.
Looking forward to great responses!
Cheers,

.....I Feel an Outbound program for fresher employees would not be cost effective. Reasons :
1.Outbound program would bring the participants too close to each other. Which may lead to an permanent conclusions about employee personality
2.Fresher Switch jobs very fast ( According to market studies ) …. What about the cost involved in outbound training is High.
Doing an out bound program with 6 month + old employees is better idea.

Hi Deepa,
We are Leitmotif. We run a very innovative team-building and creativity workshop using music.
Please send me your email id, and I will forward you the program details.
Team building for induction has several advantages:
- An opportunity to get to know each other a little deeper, as work life later hardly gives them the time
- Getting to know each other creates some common faces to look forward to in a new job and an alien environment
- If some company representatives are involved for a dinner or a coffee at the team building, it gives them an opportunity to know, ask about the company, and its people in an informal, friendly setting
- A good time to introduce work culture and ethics relevant to the organization (it sinks in better as opposed to sitting through a presentation)
To name a few, these are some of them.

Dear Deepa,
As Manmeet has mentioned, an outbound inducting session involving participants getting to know each other wouldn't be a good idea. I am sure you have an induction process where you take care of all the formalities of joining, clarify expectations, deliverables, and make them comfortable in their roles. It would be advisable to review your own competency matrix and the skill sets of the employees who have joined, and then create a time-bound plan to enhance their knowledge, skills, and attitude post their joining (say six months).
It has been proven that during the initial six months, employees put in their best effort in terms of learning the tricks of the trade/job, and thereafter, the acquired knowledge is applied to achieve results. Therefore, my suggestion would be to initiate this kind of program after their successful induction and KSA gap analysis.

Dear Manmeet,
You are right. Once they join the organization and the organization gets to know them, there will be plenty of time to hone their skills from the retention perspective as well.

Hello Everyone!
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. Points raised are very valuable. However, for the purposes of discussions and deliberations, the idea of doing the outbound program for new joiners is to get them to reflect on their own skills and learn new ones, which prepares them better for the job. Also, the advantage of doing this right at the start is that people get to know each other with no pre-conceived notions.
What is your opinion on doing an outbound training program immediately after joining the company and then having an in-house follow-up session in 6 months? Also, are there ways in which learnings can be applied in work environments?
Looking forward to more responses.

Deep

Dear Deepa,
This sounds very innovative as an idea to me.
Coming from a background of heading campus recruitment initiatives for a reputed IT MNC with additional responsibilities for overall hiring from North India, I feel that this move is in the right direction and more so for freshers. I say this because when we recruit freshers, we talk a lot about how much fun there is if one joins our organization, and then there is also some good and great work. I am happy to note that you have even outlined your priorities for such a venture. I dare say that you may possibly want to extend this idea for new joiners up to 4-5 years of experience. I am sure that the results would be great.
I am currently into training of various kinds. (please see my website www.trainersnmentors.com) and am also yet working very closely with campuses.
I would like to talk to you sometime.
Feel free to call me sometime at your convenience.

Dear Deepa,
Greetings from all at Accord.
I just saw your post this morning and related inputs sent to you so far. Indeed, it is a very positive and innovative idea that is quickly gaining popularity across the country for fresh joiners, commercial trainees, and similar levels. It gives you an edge to evaluate them right from the time they join the organization and study the change in their behavior pattern over the time they are with you.
We have been conducting similar programs for companies like Siemens, Mothersons, Convergys, and Belimo, apart from doing an average of 3 to 4 outbound and outdoor programs. Attached, please find our group profile along with a presentation on the outbound program. Outbound programs are a more costly yet cost-effective method of training at all levels. At Accord, we also offer outdoor training, which is a day-long program. We can provide you with more details should you be interested. We are very keen to work with your organization and would like to meet you to take this forward at your convenience. Please feel free to ask for more information.
