In this episode of Learning for Good, my guest, Quilen Blackwell is taking us inside his nonprofit, Southside Blooms. They grew from zero to 60 employees in just four short years. That means they onboarded a lot of staff and learned a lot along the way.
He’s sharing his experience with us, what worked and what didn’t, so you can take a look at your own onboarding program and make sure you're creating a lasting memory that helps your staff feel ready to take on that important role you hired them to do.
