Regularly cited as one of the most stressful life
events a person will experience, starting a new
job can be an overwhelming time. The experience
a new starter has on those first few days with
your company is a lot more important than you
may give it credit for.
It’s an opportunity to set the tone, impart company values and iron out any teething
problems that a team member adapting to a new organisation brings. Don’t forget
that your new starter has come from an entirely different company, with an entirely
different set of values, standards or in many cases in a completely different industry.
