Onboarding: a Learned Process

Organizational Flowchart

Swimming is a skill we teach. We don’t let people jump into the deep water and drown. Similarly, how to start a new leadership role is a teachable skill.  It shouldn’t be a “jump-in” and “sink-or-swim” approach.

PowerStart Onboarding is a proactive and extended support process to help newly placed leaders (whether recruited or promoted) transition and integrate into their new roles and organizations. The process is built on research-identified best practices for smoothing the transition and ensuring the success of new leaders.

Accelerate the Impact of New Leaders… at All Levels

Whether the transition involves an internal promotion to the senior leadership team or joining a new organization as a first-time CEO (or for that matter, as an experienced CEO), the PowerStart Onboarding process provides a much-needed road map and the support to quickly and efficiently make the transition and accelerate the new leader's impact.

Senior executives, who have experienced the support and guidance of the PowerStart Onboarding process, encouraged the development of a separate version to meet the needs of managers at earlier stages of their career. As a result, the Onboarding University was created and is now available. The University is appropriate for managers up through Vice President level and has the same goals as the senior executive PowerStart Onboarding process:

Now PowerStart Onboarding support and development can be made available to the entire management team, as a key component of their leadership development and succession preparedness.

"I simply could not have accomplished what I did, as soon as I did, without the PowerStart Onboarding process. It positioned me for success."
