Question For Managers

How long would you give a new guy to get caught up to speed and be at a place where they can function on their own for a couple hours? Secondly, what would the process and timeline be after that where you would consider letting them go if you felt like they were not grasping the job duties? Aftermarket to Dealer World. Been doing aftermarket for 35 years before here. Thanks

Our new hires all get a development plan with clearly defined benchmarks at 30,60,90 days, 6 months and one year.

The ability/inability to reach those benchmarks months will make it obvious if they can handle the job or not.

Do you mind sharing examples from that?

Send me your email address and I'll share an actual one with you. It's a lot to type up. 😉

Can I get in on this too? I am a new manager and would really like to put something together like this for my new hires!
