Employee engagement | Onboarding insights that deliver business results

Rolls-Royce. It’s one of the world’s leading industrial technology companies, pioneering cutting-edge technologies that deliver the cleanest and safest solutions to meet our planet’s vital power needs.

As shown by Rolls-Royce’s recent RMA award win for its new onboarding platform, their ground-breaking approach extends to employee engagement too. And, as befits a company whose creativity is driven by science and data, Management Information (MI) played a vital role in the development of this innovative onboarding solution.

Back in 2016, Rolls-Royce undertook a robust analysis of their current onboarding programme. They began by surveying new hires over a 12-month period with a set of questions that continues to be used today, to ensure accurate comparative data.

They also held focus group sessions to engage with internal stakeholders, gain a global perspective of the key challenges they faced and develop a better understanding of best practice in the market.
