that aligns UM, B&F and departmental missions and values.

Held focus groups with new hires
Interviewed HR professionals internal and external to B&F
Reviewed 2010 Employee Satisfaction Survey data

Gap
No standard employee onboarding framework across B&F after New
Employee Orientation (NEO) which hinders acclimation to the B&F
community and the understanding of our organizational mission and values
Objectives
Better acclimate employees in UM community
Provide an environment that accelerates higher
performance
Instill a sense of pride in employees as to why its
great to work at UM
Enable employees to understand where they
belong within B&F and UM
Help employees feel their contribution is valued and
important to the University – You Matter To Blue
Recommendations
1. Create a B&F Onboarding resource web-page
2. Recommend that B&F sends out a welcome email to new
employees. The email should contain:
• Welcome message
• Video by EVP/CFO or B&F staff explaining B&F
• Link to the new resource site on B&F website
• Missions, Vision and Values of B&F
3. B&F provides checklists to departmental HR
 Department Checklist
 Supervisors Checklist
 Employees Checklist
4. Provide an incentive to new employees to use this resource site
