When your employees\u2019 digital productivity is impaired, overall company performance is drastically limited.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s also not forget that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/talent-shortage-improve-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recruiting new employees<\/a> is costly in terms of both time and money. When successful new hires produce a positive ROI, there is a snowball effect.<\/p>\n<p>If they are productive, they not only output value for the company, they can also train other new employees to be as effective.<\/p>\n<p>New employee onboarding should address the following categories, according to an evidence-based model by the SHRM:<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Self-Efficacy \u2013 understanding where and how to get the resources they need<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Role Clarity \u2013 understanding the responsibilities and expectations of the role<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social Integration \u2013 understanding who does what and how it relates to their role<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowledge of Culture \u2013 understanding company values, expectations, and freedoms<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><b>Strategizing Training for Optimal Employee Productivity<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve built the foundation of effective new hire onboarding, the next step is to create a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/employee-training-plan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">training plan for new employees<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your training plan should be a rough guide that fits the needs of your organization and that can be customized for each employee\u2019s specific role. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not easy, nor practical, to attempt to include every single thing new employees should learn during onboarding. So instead of prescribing all of the elements that should be included in your training plan, here is the framework for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to create a training plan. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h3><b>1. Start with Identifying Training Objectives<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Answer this question: What knowledge and skills do my employees need to be successful and productive? Start drafting the answers to this. It\u2019s best to brainstorm anything and everything and put it all on paper. Then decide how to tailor training to satisfy each item. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h3><b>2. Organize Training Sessions and Hands-On Training<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find the overarching themes from your list of objectives, and create training sessions around each one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often, there will be several people in the company that hold expertise in what your new hire needs to learn. Find these people, and include them in the process of designing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/employee-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">employee training<\/a> plan. Then, ask them to help lead relevant training sessions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees can be most productive when they are introduced to resources early on rather than searching for it themselves when the need arises. That includes knowing who to turn to with what questions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important that these training sessions are scheduled for the new employee to understand <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">why <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, explain the company goals, then what is currently being done, and finally how they will contribute to the effort. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3834 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/employee-productivity_3-1.jpg\" alt=\"employee training \" width=\"740\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/employee-productivity_3-1.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/employee-productivity_3-1.jpg?resize=300,146 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n\n<h3><b>3. Open Feedback Loops<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feedback loops during training are multipurpose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, they serve as a preventative measure to ensure employees are productive during and after training.\u00a0<\/span>Offering time to talk through what is and what is not understood early will give you time to fix issues and fill knowledge gaps and improve the onboarding process for the next hires.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, provide opportunities for the new hire to discuss the training plan: what is and isn\u2019t working.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps they need more hands-on guidance, or perhaps they\u2019d prefer to observe someone work instead of simply hearing an explanation about how to do something.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meetings between the new employee and training manager can help make training more personalized to the new hire\u2019s needs and ultimately enable them to become more productive, faster. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/pages\/training-walkmeblog-corporate-000-k\/?eco=training&amp;adin=impact-training-employee-productivity-ll02&amp;land=training-walkmeblog-corporate-000-k&amp;pitch=Employee-Productivity\" rel=\"\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Take your training to the next level using WalkMe\u2019s onscreen guidance.<\/strong> <\/span><\/i><\/a><\/h4>\n<h2><b>What Additional Training Would Benefit Employee Productivity?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the digital workplace, employees engage with numerous online platforms and systems.
