The importance of the right match between candidate and employee is well documented. According to a 2012? Study by IDC Marketscape, a global market intelligence firm, employees cost businesses an estimated $37 billion every year because as hard as it is to believe, employees do not fully understand their jobs or how to perform within the culture of the organization.

Best in class companies recognize the importance of making the right hire. They are focused on making sure potential employees are qualified to perform critical job functions. But they also know that how well a candidate matches with the organization’s culture and brand will impact short and long term performance.

In the selection process, these companies gather critical information on job requirements and cultural demands, and assess how well these requirements match the employee’s style, drives and motivations. These analytics in the selection process become a springboard for the employee’s ongoing development and growth. A recent Aberdeen research report details how 90% of new hires make their decision to stay at a company within their first 6 months of employment. So, leading companies are not only able to assess a candidate’s ability and organizational fit at the interview stage, but they are also able to determine the future development and where he or she will be most effective in the future.

This session will demonstrate how to link the selection process to an effective onboarding program. You will learn how to shorten the time it takes a new employee to get up to speed, be engaged and contribute to the organization’s bottom line.

You will also learn how to extend the onboarding process to connect employee talents and motivations to the future needs of the organization.

You will leave this session with an understanding of how to match the organization’s current and future needs with what most naturally motivates and drives the employee.
