Executive Onboarding
A Critical, Yet Often Overlooked Step
Did you know that nearly 40% of leaders fail within their first 18 months? [2017 McKinsey research] This statistic highlights a significant challenge organizations face when integrating new talent.
Here are some key considerations for ensuring your new leaders embed quickly and effectively:
Cultural Integration: Help your new executive understand the unwritten rules and cultural nuances of your organization.
Relationship Building: Encourage them to forge key alliances early on, which can be crucial for their success.
Strategic Alignment: Make sure they are aligned with your organization's vision and goals from day one.
Early Win Identification: Support them in identifying quick wins that can build momentum and credibility.
Personalized Development: Address individual growth areas to maximize their impact within the organization.
By focusing on these aspects, organizations can significantly improve the onboarding experience, leading to more successful leadership transitions and better long-term outcomes. It is for this reason that Morgan Taylor Executive Search offers 1-month post hire executive coaching undertaken by a PhD industrial psychologist as part of our executive search package.
