New Employee Orientation
I am beginning with my master thesis. The subject is developing a New Employee Orientation (NEO) design: - What topics should be included in NEO? - Why is NEO an important issue to address? - Who is responsible for NEO? - Giving a timeframe for an international company. - Which theories (articles, authors, books) would be relevant in your opinion?

	New Employee Orientation Try the following: www.psc.gov.yk.ca/pdf/orientation__guide_2009_revised_march.pdf www.employeeorientation.gov.ns.ca/employee-orientation-program-guidelines; and hrweb.berkeley.edu/guides/managing-hr/recruiting-staff/new-employee. You will find that there is a lack of literature available, yet many organizations acknowledge there is a need to successfully orient new employees. Some organizations I have worked for set up a 'buddy' program and have a year long orientation. Simply following a checklist and completing the orientation in 15 minutes will not work. Good luck on your masters. Please note, while 12manage is a great site, you may find many members expect graduate students to do their own research.
