Growing your team and getting them onboarded with your systems are two different challenges.

What is onboarding?!

Okay, so I could give you the textbook definition, but instead, I want you to think about the last time you brought someone into your business, client, or team member.

Take yourself back:

You are onboarding a new team member because you decided to level the heck up. Hell yes. You have this huge vision for what this means; You are making the energetic investment. You have found the perfect person to join your team.

You then hop on the onboarding Zoom call, you get your camera on, you look at the person on the other side of the screen, and…

You have no idea where to start. 😳

How are you supposed to get this person who is so perfect for your team to fully understand your vision, tasks, and systems all in one call?

The secret. You don’t.
