With goals like that you have to ask how a day or two or even a week of OJT with a co-worker could ever accomplish them. Starbucks employees receive a minimum of 50 hours of class room training as well as much home work in addition to their OJT in just the first year of employment. Other great companies with great cultures invest even more to onboard and instill the right values. OJT cannot ensure a consistent portrayal of company culture and values nor does it serve as proof of the company’s investment in and commitment to building value into each workers career and home life. If people are truly a company’s most valuable resource then treat them like an investment that will give more with the more you give!!
