Part One of a Three-Part Paid Series
Onboarding at retreat centers is more than orientation. It is an initiation into community, culture, and care. The first 90 days shape not only performance and retention, but also a new hire’s sense of belonging, clarity, and trust in leadership.
This three-part workshop series is designed to support RCC members in building onboarding practices that are human-centered, practical, and sustainable. The series emphasizes shared learning, real-time application, and light structure through the 30/60/90 framework.
Participants are encouraged (but not required) to bring real onboarding scenarios, drafts, or challenges to each session for live exploration and peer learning.
