One of the single greatest determining factors for whether people stay long term with a company is the experience they have in the first 5 days but, less than 15% of organizations have a true onboarding and employee engagement strategy designed to create experiences that make people want to stay for years. 

Here is a sneak peak into what is needed to create engaging employee experiences: 1) Connect employees to the company culture; 2) Communicate clearly the employees role and responsibilities; 3) Create a strong network of resources within the organization. 

When employees have regular positive experiences, they feel more valuable, valued, validated for the contributions they make day after day which leads to long term engagement, job satisfaction and retention.
