Hit The Ground Running: Creating and Sustaining Contractor Value from Day One

Let's be frank: Are those online onboarding modules truly critical from day one? Or, are they just a babysitter in disguise? ("Here's your laptop, do the training, and I'll be with you in a few days...")

Is it possible to get immediate value from a team member, or contractor from Day One?

This is the topic Aneurin Hughes and I explored at our AMPEAK Workshop: Hit The Ground Running: Creating and Sustaining Contractor Value from Day One.

We were so lucky to have the incredibly talented Ben Crothers in the room, scribing our session.

Here are the key highlights, captured beautifully below, including:
➡️ What's your DBI? (What are the Dull, But Important things a new team member must know immediately, to do their job? Things like job numbers, where to save docs (filing name conventions) sit here)
➡️ Both contractor and supervisor (employee/manager) expect certain things from day one, but there's two sides of the coin: What are you willing to offer?
➡️ Does an employee REALLY need to know the corporate values from Day One, to get a job done?
➡️ Instead of creating new meetings, where are the opportunities for a contractor to piggyback on existing meetings at the organisation?

Thank you Asset Management Council for hosting the event, and for those who came along and shared their thoughts!
