Built into our platform is an onboarding plan. All our new employees have a view of what they’re going to be doing in their first few weeks at Imagination. This covers meeting key individuals, an overview of tasks expected from them, and an introduction to their business.
In this plan, we establish regular one-to-one catch-ups with their managers and a formal review is booked in after three and then six months. This helps everyone stay aligned on objectives, on track to succeed and gives everyone the chance to provide invaluable feedback. If anything needs to be addressed, this plan helps managers take proactive actions against identified issues.

The final step of our onboarding process is to discuss and set formal goals with new employees. At Imagination, we want staff to be clear on expectations and priorities. We base these on aiding personal growth and development while also enabling employees to deliver on their professional goals too.
Having these actionable objectives and goals helps everyone involved in the employee experience. From the top down, managers can get the most out of their team and feel comfortable that their feedback is helping staff grow. And the newer joiners have something clear to work towards, which will help them develop and progress within the company.
Our onboarding plan, from the initial interaction and creating a feeling of unity, to setting objectives and driving individual growth and development, is designed to create the ultimate engagement.
Keeping employees engaged from the interview to the end of their time with the company, helps us promote a culture of enabling excellence, which benefits both the individuals involved and the wider business. Investing in engagement is profitable company-wide as disengaged employees can cost organisations around $450-550 billion each year.
