So, you have just invested in recruitment costs and time to find that great employee. It may have taken you three months from identifying a need in the business and getting that great person to join your organisation. They are excited, they can’t wait to add value to your business and make their mark! Your new employee arrives on the first day and no one is expecting them. They don’t have a pass to the building, there is no desk allocated or a computer. Their manager is not even in the country and no one has been given the responsibility to take them under their wing until the manager returns. This actually happened to someone I know and their initial impression of the business they joined was extremely negative. They were very tempted to walk out of the company on that first day.
