Abstract: In Effective Onboarding, talent development experts Norma Dávila and Wanda Piña-Ramírez offer a single source for onboarding best practices, job aids, templates, and checklists, along with examples and stories based on real-life situations the authors have encountered in their practice. While many books about onboarding are limited to employee recruitment and selection, this book follows employees through their first year on the job. Effective Onboarding is part of a new ATD series, What Works in Talent Development, which addresses the most critical topics facing today's talent development practitioners.
