It's time to make every beginning in your company as promising as the recruitment pitch.
Get the step by step plan, tools and training you need to onboard your new people with ease!
Attracting talent is hard. Keeping them is harder.
It’s no secret we’re in a candidate-short market. So when your stand-out candidate says “Yes!” to your offer, you want to do everything you can to keep them.
And you need to get them up to speed ASAP.
But when it comes to the onboarding process you’re
- introducing your new employee to their desk and specific job responsibilities, wishing them luck, and then wondering why they don’t seem to “get it”
- feeling overwhelmed by the whole process and not knowing what it should look like or how to fix it
- trying to create a work environment where your employees feel like they're part of the team, and not just another number
- attempting to cobble together a last-minute process that can be used by next Monday, 9 am…and coming up short
- seeing cracks appear in your new employee’s performance or culture-fit a few months in and dreading the difficult conversation and incredibly expensive rehiring process…
- and suddenly that old saying, “Hire slow, fire quickly” is starting to sound like the quickest way to destroy your bottom-line.
You want to build an amazing team to grow your business and get back some freedom. You know a successful, engaging onboarding system is critical to make that happen. But what does that look like?
You need someone to tell it to you straight.Â
Someone who’s built a reliable system and used it to successfully onboard hundreds of new employees. For businesses of all sizes. Across 30 different industries.
Someone like yours truly…
Hi, I’m Simone
Â
Entrepreneur, self leadership thought leader and talent strategist with a knack for helping businesses and people reach their full potential. I discovered my love for helping people succeed, at the tender age of 15 coaching netball. And for the past 25 years I’ve helped multi-billion dollar (yep, with a “b”) organisations, and entrepreneurs across 30+ industries, develop leaders, scale teams and align people for success, including…
- Driving the people component of a private equity business turnaround from $0 EBIT to $23m EBIT in just three years, which included 500+ hires
- Replacing and onboarding 40% of the sales team of a private equity business in 18 months, for a successful sale of the business
- Leading Talent Strategies with clients like Coles, Australia Post, Spotless and Greyhound Australia
- Leading the HR delivery, workforce planning and resourcing for the 2006 Commonwealth Games
- Judging the Australian Telstra Business Women of the Year AwardsÂ
Â
If there’s anything the last 25 years have shown me, it’s that your onboarding process is critical to having people stay, play and slay when it comes to delivering results. An effective onboarding process sets the scene for your organisation's culture, the goals and expectations of your new person and alignment of your team. It’s also how you build and retain leaders from day one. I’ve seen companies of all sizes make the same onboarding mistakes over and over. Mistakes that are bad for their new employees. And bad for business. At the core, it’s pretty simple…
Without the right support, new hires end up in a sink or swim situation
Â
Effective onboarding helps your people perform quickly, leaves a good impression on them in the first few months, and maximises your chance to retain them.
But too often, despite your best intentions, onboarding leaves new team members feeling stressed or guilty about not knowing all the information from day one.
Tell me, does this sound familiar?
You’ve hired someone and done everything you can to help them settle in. You’ve pulled some stuff together, which is, honestly, more like an orientation day than a considered integration into your culture. You’ve implemented some “team building” activities and maybe a morning tea.
But when you check in to ask if everything’s ok...
All you get is an agreeable “yes”. Â
Or perhaps you’ve already had to have a difficult conversation and, together, you’ve worked out a way forward.Â
But then nothing changes.
You want someone who shows initiative, solves problems and can help you scale. Someone who is also passionate about your business, has a winning attitude, and is aligned with your vision and goals.Â
Someone  who’s agile enough to navigate the journey with you.
The thing is…
Another cobbled together induction day (or even a week) will never give you the results you both hoped for.
You need a roadmap, with key milestones to hit, great coaching tools and feedback systems.
Â
So you can stay ahead of any issues, keep your new team members aligned, harvest their ideas and easily see how your people are performing…
Â
And create an environment for them to really fly

Let me guess…
You’re all the way down here because you’re not sure if The Onboarding Toolbox is the right fit for you

- You’re already completely happy with your onboarding process, work culture and retention rates and have no intention of changing them
- You’re not willing to stay curious and hear feedback that gives you important insights into your employees experiences
- You're 100% confident knowing what to say and when to say it when addressing a performance issue or having a difficult conversation that involves conflict
- You don't want to get ahead of any potential issues with your new hires
On the other hand, The Onboarding Toolbox IS perfect for you if you’re…
- Ready to scale to 8 figures + and need great team members to do it
- Over cobbling together bits of onboarding “best practices” from the far flung corners of the internet or ChatGPT
- Tired of competitors or previous employers stealing new hires out from under you after you’ve put in so much time, effort and money.
- Keen to create deeper levels of connection and buy-in from your team and give your retention rates a serious uptick
- Willing to learn simple and effective new coaching techniques that deepen conversations and elevate performanceÂ
- Primed for a streamlined onboarding process that fosters open communication, strong team relationships and boosts your bottom line
