Problem Statement: The company needed to on-board and re-onboard its entire management team, including newly hired, and promoted managers. The re-boarding exercise was required to take all managers through another set of onboarding sessions that offer a refresher on culture, company’s mission, values, and procedures. and a chance to ask questions about workplace norms that may have changed so far. The re-onboarding exercise was also required for managers to nurture their existing connection to the organization and with each other.

Outcome: A more cohesive management team that is upto date with company culture, company mission, values, procedures, goals and ambitions. A more connected management team with each other and to the organization
