Having written about creating a ‘values’ training program that rocks , I thought I should widen the net, and write about crafting an onboarding program as well. As you’d expect, this post is not about why you need to create a good onboarding program.

In a recent conversation, I was talking about good design. Someone asked a question, and I elaborated that there was more to consider. Pressed again, I expanded yet more.

During a recent TechSmith Camtasia vILT class , a student asked if it was possible to remove alert messages that always seemed to appear when she was recording her screen.

I love seeing friends and colleagues posting on LinkedIn or other networks about starting a new project, a success they’ve had at work, or the details of a new job. What you don’t see or rarely hear about in that status update is the time, effort, energy, and sometimes pain they went through to achieve that.
