You've just arrived in the company, and now you're onboarding employees. It's great to welcome new staff. But how can you do that when you're almost as new as they are? Inducting employees while finding your own feet is challenging. But show the team members you trust and value them, and you’ll gain respect while empowering others to step up.

By encouraging collaboration, you’ll excel at onboarding even as a new manager. Don’t forget the expertise you have yourself, including your own recent induction. You'll need to create a team-led onboarding plan to successfully welcome new employees. Basic kindness and listening will help, along with your many other transferable skills.

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to:

• Identify transferable skills from previous roles, either managerial or otherwise, and apply them to the onboarding process of your new organization
• Navigate the dynamics, culture, and protocols of the organization, so you can help others during their onboarding process as well
• Describe various ways to leverage your experience as a new employee, to connect with new staff during the onboarding process
