Professional preboarding: how to inspire new employees before their first day at work
Effective preboarding measures:
The main focus should be on preparing your new employee and getting them excited about their new role. Well-dosed contact points are the means of choice.
Effective preboarding strategies strengthen the emotional bond between new employees and the company at a very early stage. Here just a few examples
- Answering questions before they are asked (FAQs, checklists, etc.)
- Personalized welcome emails or personalized intro videos
- Welcome gifts
- Invitation to company events (after-work, summer party, team events, etc.)
- Introduction of a “pre-boarding buddy” as a mentor / internal reference person
These measures arouse enthusiasm for the new working environment and prevent poaching attempts from taking root. And: it creates security with regard to the decision made - an enormous value in times of uncertainty!
Therefore, professional preboarding promotes employee loyalty, increases identification with the corporate culture and reduces early fluctuation. Hence, strong preboarding can save considerable costs and sustainably increase the motivation of new employees.
