As leaders, we must always welcome the new members of our Team. Wednesdays is usually the day I welcome new hire classes. I want them to know that THEY are the most important to the most senior leader in the organization. I talk about the organization’s vision, mission and core values. I tell them to call me Patrick as I do not like being called sir or boss because the true bosses are the frontline Associates. I answer all their questions about the organization, HR policies, I describe the exciting work environment they will have, I talk about the amazing fellow Associate we have, and that they can dream BIG and grow their careers in the organization.
Yes, I usually get myself to sing and / or dance when I meet the new hires. I want them to know that the fun & engaging work environment starts with me. Then, I always end the welcome meeting asking everyone to join me with the cheer of the Team.
“One Team….!”
*About the video
Its not only me who welcomes new hires. Every account or department has a fun dance video to welcome new hires. We play these videos and several others in the new hire classes. This welcome video is from one of my hybrid Teams working from home and onsite.
