Staff induction - it's just learning

Shawn Callahan has written a piece on staff induction. To quote:

I have been asking people, "How long after starting here did you feel you really knew the organisation and job you were doing?" Most people said it took them 12-18 months in a large organisation to really feel on top on things. Staff induction, therefore, needs to be more gradual and unfold over time as we experience the organisation we've joined. We need a slower and longer-term approach, one that better balances intellectual and emotional learning.
