We complete our series on Triboarding – cultivating a lifecycle of employee engagement by highlighting a key factor that not only enhances employee engagement but also top-tier employee retention and growth: Transboarding, which helps in planning for and enabling success.

So far in this series we have established a firm foundation for a career of engagement by creating a unique and impactful Onboarding experience that we continually build upon daily with intentional Reboarding and re-recruiting activities that engage and reengage every employee every day in some way. To complete the employee lifecycle we must proactively enable the smooth and successful transitions employees make throughout their careers through Transboarding.

Career ladders are fast becoming relics of the past, being replaced by dynamic and agile talent mobility strategies.  A number of trends are accelerating this evolution: expectations are increasing for more rapid career advancement, an aging workforce with more people retiring early means more people are shifting into new positions. Coupling those with the complete disruption and uncertainty in the global workplace today requires a focused and intentional strategy for talent flexibility and mobility.  Transboarding enables ongoing, flexible, successful talent transitions by proactively identifying, developing, and cultivating the unique talents and skills of individuals.

Transboarding ensures:

• Employees proactively have access to the right resources that help them succeed be it with training, coaching, mentoring, or technology.

• Employees understand and are connected to the vision, values and priorities of their new workplace function, which often may be different from the function they were in previously, even within the same organization.

• Employee’s have clarity and alignment to what success looks like from day one in their new function and the resources they can call upon to assist.

• As an employee transitions out of a role into a new role or leaves the organization that the successor is properly transboarded and set up for success day one.

Transboarding completes the entire employee lifecycle of engagement from prior to day one onboarding to intentional efforts that continually engage each day to enabling effective talent transitions and mobility.
