The first week will be filled with introductions to key team members, getting up to speed on critical projects, and learning about systems and processes.
It might feel like a whirlwind with lots of meetings and information, so make sure you leave space for your new joiner to absorb the content and formulate questions. Even better if you can make it collaborative, enabling them to input when they’re ready for more content, and when they need a break.
Use the week one agenda template to get a good balance of meetings, presentations, and some fun, virtual icebreaker games.
