Generally speaking, \u201c<strong>buddies<\/strong>\u201d represent selected employees within the company renowned for their soft and social skills. The <strong>ultimate goal of a buddy program<\/strong> is to build on the existing onboarding setup by leveraging the power of social interactions to get the most out of both the new employee and his\/her buddy. Based, of course, on a well-documented process, the <strong>buddy program<\/strong> encourages both parties to continuously share their experiences, <a style=\"color: #2f5e92; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/knowledge-management-tools\/?utm_source=BlogEn&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Content&amp;utm_content=link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>knowledge<\/u><\/a> and best practices.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Additionally, as a transparent and less formal process, buddy programs give new employees the chance to voice their opinion, provide feedback on the <strong>onboarding experience<\/strong> and share any concerns with their counterparts (something, they usually wouldn\u2019t be willing to share with their managers and direct supervisors).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/section>\r\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-17d1a63 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"17d1a63\" data-element_type=\"section\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fae7b30\" data-id=\"fae7b30\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f4e3ce3\" data-id=\"f4e3ce3\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e3a790 myheader1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8e3a790\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">2.

Sure, using wikis, for example, can help employees get going. However, in addition to that, speaking to people (whether in person or using a messaging app) is proven to be a better (or complementary) approach as it helps in both communicating vital information and creating social bonds. The latter would eventually play a key role in engaging new hires and making them feel immediately welcomed at their new company.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d8b9f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8d8b9f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-26608\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc.jpg 870w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-710x473.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-492x328.jpg 492w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-354x236.jpg 354w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-197x131.jpg 197w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/photo-1557425493-6f90ae4659fc-45x30.jpg 45w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/section>\r\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5a12e92 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5a12e92\" data-element_type=\"section\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2e76f86\" data-id=\"2e76f86\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-96f567c\" data-id=\"96f567c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b5a8061 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b5a8061\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Build a strong knowledge sharing culture\n<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-499e6ed elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"499e6ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>It goes without saying that the essence of a <strong>successful onboarding experience<\/strong> is knowledge.

There are a lot of metrics to keep track of and the results -at times- can\u2019t be effectively visualized only after a couple of months if not years (we are talking about long term engagement and retention). However, in terms of initial feedback and job satisfaction, surveys are your best bet. Try to send engagement surveys to both new hires and their buddies in order to get their feedback on the whole experience and pinpoint any areas of improvement. You can also use your <strong>digital workplace analytics<\/strong> module or a third party analytics tool such as Google\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Analytics to look for more quantified data. For example, you can check the number of spaces a new hire joined, which type of content they share or interact with, how many tasks they have completed during the onboarding process and much more. This data can be indicative of a new hire\u2019s initial level of engagement and involvement, although it lacks the more qualitative dimension (which can only be gathered through surveys or direct
