New Leader On-Boarding Coaching
Most organizations are not effective at on-boarding new external leaders, or in promoting and developing individual contributors to be leaders. It is therefore no surprise that more than 40% of new leaders fail to meet expectations. These costs to the business are substantial, from direct replacement costs of two to three times salary, to costs related to inefficiency, missed opportunity costs, and poor morale.
MCG Partners New Leader On-Boarding helps leaders achieve a successful new or expanded leadership responsibility. The program is supported by the MCG Partners New Leader On-Boarding and Coaching Guide, the most comprehensive on-boarding toolkit available. MCG Partners On-Boarding Program can be purchased as a program to be implemented across an organization or company, or it can be purchased for a specific leader on a case by case basis.
New Leader On-Boarding is especially valuable when:
- An executive from outside the organization joins your firm.
- A technical expert or individual contributor moves into a leadership/managerial role.
- The position being filled has seen historically high turnover - unsuccessful predecessors.
- The new leader’s department presents immediate challenges - high turnover, low morale, or resentment in the organization about an incoming new leader.
- The new leader is filling a position that is just being created in the organization.
- The new leader and his or her supervisor are at different locations, or the supervisor can dedicate only limited time to supporting the new leader’s assimilation.
