Special Onboarding and Transition Acceleration Programs

Moving into a new leadership position is one of the toughest challenges business people face. What you do before and during your first 100 days will absolutely determine your chance for success, so prepare to succeed before you start.  Nearly half of all newly hired executives fail within 18 months, often due to mistakes made at the very beginning.   Prepare now to avoid critical mistakes and achieve Better Results Faster than anyone thought possible by participating in a New Job Prep Workshop after you accept and before you start your new leadership position.

When we work with promoted executives we impose a perspective on our methodology - that internally promoted leaders are like relay runners joining a race mid-course. They must: 1) prepare and start moving in advance; 2) take control of the transition by putting a hand where they want the baton placed; and 3) accelerate immediately following the handoff. As with all PrimeGenesis onboarding and transition acceleration clients, we prepare promoted executives for a high-impact transition, then take the executive and team through a 100-day program that establishes a high-performing business grouop and kicks off key strategic, operational, and organizational processes.

New leaders entering senior positions are best served by the one-on-one executive onboarding and transition acceleration provided by PrimeGenesis experts. This is a high level, hands-on, experience-based process that we customize for each leader and situation. Taking charge, building the team and delivering better results faster is, however, important for new leaders at all levels. For companies with many mid-level and first line managers to onboard, PrimeGenesis offers a program to train client company human resource professionals in our executive onboarding and transition acceleration methodology. The PrimeGenesis train-the-trainer program includes:

• 1. Development of a company-specific onboarding program, including reference handbooks for internal facilitators and onboarding workshops that can be offered to new company leaders.
  2. A one day workshop where PrimeGenesis trains the internal team that will implement the client company onboarding program.
  3. Copies of The New Leader’s 100-Day Action Plan and PrimeGenesis executive onboarding tools.
  4. Case studies.
  5. On-going support by email and phone consultation; co-facilitation of new trainer workshops; and quarterly program reviews.

We work with business schools to conduct leadership transition workshops for graduating MBA's. The interactive workshops draw on PrimeGenesis' core methodology to prepare MBA's to take on their new jobs with confidence and gain an understanding of the benefits of executive onboarding and transition acceleration for better results faster.
