Ep 16 | Follow, Manage, Lead - An onboarding framework for launching new hires to greater success w/ Kathleen Metcalf

Listen Later

Are you setting your new hires up for success or for failure? Too many employers stop short of the finish line when they hire a new employee. Let’s change that.


I’m excited to have real estate team trainer and coach, Kathleen Metcalf back on the podcast as well as Pro R.E.A. Staffing’s own Sarah Weaver. This topic is so important that it required a co-host.


The hiring process isn’t over when a candidate signs their offer letter. Nope, not even close. The hiring process ends once a candidate is fully onboarded and is thriving in their role.


If you are willing to take the time, effort and money to invest in hiring a talented employee for your business, it makes no sense to fail to provide outstanding training and onboarding experience for your new hire.


In today’s podcast listen for:

  • Before an employee can be proactive in their role they must first follow, then manage and then finally, they can lead
  • The bicycle analogy - the training wheels come off one at a time
  • What is reasonable to expect from a new hire in their first 90 days
  • How you respond to mistakes is massively important; How to respond when mistakes are made, and when mistakes really do equal a red flag
  • Where to start with employee training
  • Busting the myth: “My new hire is experienced so they don’t need training and onboarding.”
  • The “Dark before the Dawn” (This is SO true.)
  • Oncology vs Preventative Medicine: Why new hire coaching starting Day 1 is so important
  • People are different but they are predictably different. How to use the DISC behavioral assessment to communicate effectively with everyone on your team


    • You can learn more about Kathleen at www.kathleenmetcalf.com.


    Finally, we mentioned the DISC Profile. If you are not familiar with this assessment download our Cheat Sheet. If you would like to learn what your DISC score is you can purchase the DISC for $25 on our website.
