| By Michael Beniaminovich, Towers Perrin |
| Historically, onboarding has been a lengthy and paper-intensive process, a necessary burden no one enjoyed.

Getting employees to see the benefits of taking on more responsibility is not easy and neither is getting your company to understand that employees need encouragement and guidance, in addition to money. |
