Onboarding a data team
Introduction Onboarding is so important to give a great impression, but also setting up the scaffolding of what a new employee would expect the culture to be like at a company.
Needless to say, it’s not normally a great experience, it normally starts with spending the first two weeks getting access to systems and tools. Then once you have access, especially in the remote working environment - sometimes you get only a brief introduction with your manager, and get a small glimpse as to what you are to be working on. This common scenario, makes people feel less connected to the team, and no excitement or passion for the work - they feel undervalued, which isn’t a great start from day one or two.
