It's who you know ! Building your first network during hybrid onboarding

This weeks question is

How do I make sure I still create a sense of belonging for new joiners when they go through a hybrid induction.

For me there are a few key moments where meeting in person helps the new starter to feel part of the team and wanted and in short they are:

1. Meeting a business leader to understand the story and values of the company 
2. Meeting their coach or manager in one or multiple smaller sessions which focus on the new joiner and and their career aspirations 
3. Meeting a buddy - as a person that they are be able to trust to ask the stupid questions 
4. And finally building enough of a starter network with people they will be working or interacting with
