The Hidden Risk in Your Onboarding Process
Your Onboarding Process is probably well designed - policies are covered, systems are explained and expectations are set. Yet many organisations still experience:
- New starters taking longer than expected to reach full productivity
- Early disengagement or loss of confidence that goes unseen
- High performers under-delivering in their first 6–12 months
Many organisations experience costly early attrition that’s difficult to explain on paper. New hires appear capable, performance is acceptable, and no concerns are raised - yet confidence, engagement, and momentum quietly erode in the early months, remaining invisible in reports until the investment in talent is already lost.
The hidden issue? Onboarding often focuses on information, not transition. Starting a new role is one of the most critical and vulnerable moments in an employee’s journey and it’s where their potential is either unlocked or lost.
