Onboarding
High expectations are placed on newly hired managers. On the one hand, they are expected to quickly establish themselves in their new environment and become effective, but on the other hand, they are often also tasked with providing new impetus and transforming the management area.
The achievement of challenging corporate goals depends on the successful integration of these managers; increasing sales, increasing EBIT, and technical innovations are just a few examples.
This situation presents a conflict that harbors risks. On the one hand, the manager is expected to fit the company and its culture, while on the other, they are expected to influence that culture for change. A dilemma that could lead to an early termination. This is expensive:
- Lost time of design
- Vacancy of the position
- Irritation of employees
- Damage to the reputation of those involved in the selection process
- Lack of the desired effect
- Direct and indirect costs of recruiting
- Strengthening the forces of inertia
It's also a difficult experience for the manager themselves to not be able to integrate into an organization and be "pushed away." This also negatively impacts your company's image in the market.
To ensure the integration of new managers, we accompany this process in cooperation with the manager and your company:
- We help managers to get the “old” company out of their minds and to open themselves mentally to your company.
- We support your new manager in becoming aware of their own weaknesses and strengths and in comparing them with the requirements of the new role.
- We are sparring partners for you and your managers in identifying the respective expectations, evaluations and dialogues necessary for adjustment.
- We prepare the manager for special situations so that the presentation is a success.
- We help analyze cultural requirements and support the development of change concepts.
- Through these measures, we ensure a stable and rapid integration and thus ensure high effectiveness in terms of the company's objectives.
This approach is project-based and is tailored to your company, the new manager, and the challenges of the specific situation.
