In June 2013, only 30% of the workforce were fully engaged in their jobs. Since then many companies have tried to defeat worker apathy by implementing various programs and other initiatives. Despite these efforts most organizations have only seen a two-point increase over the past couple of years. Dr. Jim Harter, Gallup's engagement guru, says traditional leadership is one of the biggest deflaters of employee engagement. Gallup's research shows the genesis of highly engaged employees boils down to one key factor. "Engagement largely comes down to whether people have a manager who cares about them, grows them and appreciates them." Managers are losing the battle for two reasons. They either do not understand how to motivate people to accelerate their performance. Or they do not know all the factors that influence employee engagement.

These individuals will make the difference between success and failure in your business. Here are the top reasons why staff orientation is so important. Employees Need to Understand Your Values In a new employee orientation, information about your business should be the place you start. Where else are your new staff members going to learn about your passions and visions for the company? This is an important part of any orientation, as it helps the employee understand the culture of your business and why they need to get on board. Company Culture Shines Through in Orientation A new staff person's first impression of your company's culture will be evident through the orientation they receive. If the orientation is not put together well, the individuals will have a good idea of how the business is run. If you can't take your own business seriously by putting together a valuable orientation, then how can you expect people that work for you to take you seriously? Introduce all new personnel to what is important to you as an employer by creating an orientation that will give them valuable information. Customer Service Expectations Must Be Explained During the orientation process, you need to communicate clearly how the new team member should serve customers. This is a very valuable part of the process. You cannot assume that they will know how to treat customers to your liking. It doesn't matter how much experience they have in the industry. All businesses handle this aspect of the business differently. Employees Need to Meet Leadership In the orientation, new employees need a chance to meet existing leadership and hear from them personally. Companies that lead from the front are the ones that are successful. As a CEO, it is part of your job to introduce yourself to those that your company employs. Many companies let out a sigh of relief after they have hired on new staff members. They feel that this is the hardest part of the process. The truth is, molding and shaping the new employees into people that are a good fit for the company is the real challenge. We would love to hear your comments.
