How to integrate new staff into the team

Hiring is one of the biggest challenges for an organisation/business. Once you find the right person, you need to make sure that you set them up for success. Here is ‘How To Integrate New Staff Into The Team’.

Provide a welcome package

What exactly does that mean? If you have new employees joining the team, you need to embed them as quickly as possible by providing a welcome package. This means getting everything set up promptly. What systems are they going to be using? Get their emails ready so that they feel already part of the team when they come in on their first day. Make sure

One of the significant important is the Wi-Fi, putting them on the Wi-Fi, which makes it easy so that they're not wasting their data while they're in the office. Every little thing you could think of to make your new employees' lives a lot easier is the first thing that should be included in that welcome pack.

Build relationships + engage in communication

How exactly could you do that? Sometimes looking at some simple icebreaker games to embed the new staff with the existing team is a way to build that relationship. Introducing some of the different systems and various processes will build that engagement and build that communication.

It's essential that you onboard and embed the new staff into the team as quickly as possible because when that's done and everyone's on the same page, it's easier for the business to achieve its goals.

Provide a cohesive goal

Having a team meeting where you look at the company's objective and look at what you're trying to achieve for that particular week, or that specific month, or that specific day is a way to make sure everyone is singing from that same hymn sheet.

Talking about the business’s goals means that the company's objectives are front and centre of your team. Allowing them to be met by the new staff and the existing staff.
