Feel Empowered & Equipped
“What I loved most about this workshop was the feeling of complicity, of security to share who I am, my ideas, my challenges - little human touches in the organization of the event that feel good. We leave inspired, equipped and energized.”
“This workshop allowed me to dissect the employee integration process, see its flaws and find concrete solutions, as a team, to improve it.”
“I’ll keep with me the concept of design thinking itself. How to better rethink an idea by "mapping" it. I will also continue to mature the idea I worked on during the workshop to better prepare our new employees to act in their role.”

Come learn how to design for a consistent, creative and deeply engaging experience that avoids your new employees running out through the back door.

Why You Should Invest in Onboarding
-
According to SHRM, employee turnover can be as much as 50% for hourly workers in the first four months and 50% in the first 18 months for senior outside hires.
Let’s face it: the cost of finding, hiring and training are exceptionally high. Conservative estimates indicate that it will cost a company one-half to two times an employee's annual salary to identify and onboard a replacement.
In a competitive talent marketplace, that's a lot of wasted time and money re-finding talent.
-
According to Gallup, only 12% of employees strongly agree their organization does a great job of onboarding new employees.
The consequences are significant, regrettable turnover within the first year of employment and low engagement among employees who stay.
Organizations may have great talent attraction strategies, but they stumble once new employees get in the door.
This workshop guarantees you won’t be that organization with the pretty front door but a very messy home inside.
-
Greater investments in onboarding are justified when HR leaders can show the impact of new programs on business outcomes. And for that, you need data.
The workshop weaves in strategic reflexes that will enable you to develop a data-informed approach.
-
Yes, pulling away from the business for a whole day is costly. But this workshop is an investment.
In just 6 hours, how we teach, and the experience will empower and engage HR leaders to think strategically and drive business impact.
Walk away with a recipe you can make your own and reuse in tons of strategic HR initiatives.
Remember, the cost of the workshop and salary for the day counts towards the 1% Law. Bang for your buck!

Hi, I’m Carmen 👋 and I’m on a mission to bridge the gap between people’s professional aspirations and business objectives to build performing cultures. With the structure of design, we can unlock people’s greatest potential at work. I listen to understand and design to empower.
Leveraging my deep user experience research and design-thinking toolkits, I collaborate with internal teams to research, build, and deliver solutions fostering engaging organizational cultures that meet business needs.
Working with me is an invitation to think like a designer by embracing uncertainty, discovering through empathy, and leading with curiosity.
Beyond my passion for my work, I can talk forever about renovations, love to get involved in initiatives that empower young women to become confident professionals, and am constantly planning trips that rhyme with camping. 🛶 🥾 🚴♀️
