Onboarding as a Strategy: Improve Retention of New Hires

Each quarter, the Engage Mentoring Executive Talent Roundtables meet and have a focused discussion on a topic related to attracting, retaining, and developing talent.

At our upcoming Engage Mentoring Executive Talent Roundtable meeting, the focus topic will be implementing an effective onboarding program in order to improve new employee retention. To prepare for the discussion, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Cara Silletto, President and Chief Retention Officer of Crescendo Strategies.

Some of the topics we discussed include the importance of checking in, having a good plan in place beyond HR, the significance of having and following a checklist, and other fun and novel approaches.

You can listen to the full interview by following this link. And be sure to weigh in on this topic by sharing your thoughts and what strategies and tactics your company use to attract and retain talent, particularly when it comes to having an effective onboarding program.
