Phase 2 · Strategy & Planning · From Idea to Executable Plan
Employee Onboarding Programme
The first 90 days determine whether a hire thrives or exits. Most businesses leave those 90 days entirely to chance.
Employee onboarding is the structured programme that takes a new hire from their first day to fully productive contributor — with clarity on their role, the culture, the systems, and the relationships they need to succeed. We design the onboarding curriculum, the 30-60-90 day framework, and the manager enablement guide that makes new hires productive faster and significantly more likely to stay.
The Pain We Solve
You may recognise yourself in one of these.
Three audience scenarios · because the same service produces a different transformation depending on where you are in the business journey.
Scenario 1
The business where new hires are left to figure things out for themselves
New starters arrive, get a laptop and a desk, are introduced to the team in a group call, and are then expected to self-start. Three months later the manager wonders why they do not feel like they have fitted in.
Scenario 2
The rapidly hiring SME where onboarding is inconsistent across managers
Some hires get a thorough introduction. Others are left to shadow someone for a week and then go it alone. The experience of joining the business varies wildly depending on who manages the new hire.
Scenario 3
The business with a high early-tenure attrition problem
People are leaving within their first six months at a rate that suggests something is wrong with the onboarding or the role clarity — not the people. The cost of replacing them is significant and the problem is not being diagnosed.
The Impact It Creates
The Moment You Will Feel the Difference.
New hires reach productivity materially faster than the unstructured alternative
Early-tenure attrition reduced through better integration and role clarity
Culture transmitted deliberately rather than left to osmosis
Manager confidence in bringing new people into the team

Why We Price This Way
Every engagement is sized around the value we believe we can create with you. The fee is always a fraction of the outcome · typically 10 – 20% of the expected first-year return.
This is how we make sure pricing aligns with results. The conversation is never “what does this cost?” · it is always “what is this worth to your business?” We answer that together in the first call, transparently, and decide the right tier from there.
If we cannot articulate a credible 5–10× return for your specific situation, we will tell you in the first call. That honesty is part of why our clients trust us with the work that matters most.
Why This Conversation Matters
“The way you welcome someone into your business tells them everything about the kind of organisation they have joined. We design a first chapter that makes them glad they chose you — and determined to stay.”
A 90-minute structured strategy session · produces a usable roadmap whether you engage further or not.
