Hi Smitha,
As A soft skills Facilitator I often come across Team Leads and above who join an established Company fresh. Now some of their juniors end up knowing a lot more about the Company structure,procedures, who's who list,what's on & what's not . Induction for 1 or 2 is not viable is what they say.
So firstly Good you are working on this.
Secondly see the areas I have mentioned where new entries at Mid and Senior levels find a challenge. Also it would be helpful if Avps get the competency list of the direct juniors or the ones who report to them.
Having mentioned the areas now the WOW methods...
1. A ppt for the Company related formalities + a Handout (presented by a vibrant coordinator a week before joining)
2. An informal dinner with those who will be directly reporting. So as to get the Highs and lows of the particular Department (This also a little before the induction)
3. Sharing the Competency list on day of joining.
4.A bulleted & priority rated listed paper which is in line with the AVPs plan of Action. A brief about each listed point would be welcome.
Finally this AVP should attend a session or two of the seniors addressing new entries...
Ok? Not Ok?....
Have a nice day!
