ELEMENTS OF A GOOD ORIENTATION
PROGRAM
It must be formal, well-planned, with a “to-do” checklist.
Follow up session and a feedback mechanism to determine

how effective it is in relation to its purpose and objectives.
It must not be overdone and it must be interactive.

An induction program could either be short and
sloppy or long, overwhelming and boring.
An orientation is boring if you overwhelm the

new hires with facts, figures names and faces
packed into one whole day.

“Think about the first day in your
job. You feel like a kid in the first
day of school. Anxiety grips you.
Will they like me? Will I be safe here?
How is my immediate boss? What it’s
like working in this company? Did I make
the right decision to join this company?”
Effects of a Good Orientation
Anybody put into a new, strange situation would experience
anxiety that if left unattended would affect adversely his ability
to do the job or learn how to do the job.
Good orientation helps to reduce anxiety in entering into an

unknown situation and helps provide guidelines for conduct and
behavior reducing the stress of guessing what to do and how to
act and interact with others.
Effects of a Good Orientation
Training as a planned effort by a company to facilitate
employees’ learning of job-related competencies.
These competencies includes knowledge, skills and behaviors

that are critical for successful job performance.
The goal of training is for employees to master the

knowledge, skills and behaviors emphasized in training
programs and to apply them to their day-to-day activities.
