5 principles for onboarding remote employees

  • Meet early and often

    For new hires to have sufficient access to  information and an understanding of how to prioritize their work, managers need to invest in frequent communication during the onboarding process.

  • Provide a peer mentor

    A peer mentor can answer common new hire questions and create a social connection for the new hire within the institution.

  • Build a sense of team

    Team cohesion engages new and current employees and improves morale.
