Transition Coaching

Common scenario: because a new organisation and/or new role is a major transition, the new employee experiences intense psychological stress. Where there is low or no fit between them and the new role/organisation there is a high probability that the individual will fail. What may be worse than the individual leaving, is that they may end up ‘quitting but staying’.

Both, a new hire and an organisation can bear very high costs of a failed transition and integration process. As a team of psychologists, behavioural change experts and qualified business coaches Perfect People can ensure that the transition and integration process of a new external hiring or internal hiring is effective, smooth and painless. For both parties.

The Hiring Reality

The organisation will have significant losses commencing with real financial costs, lost productivity and unnecessarily high churn rates. There will be organisational stress from the prolonging of unfilled positions and high churn rates impact on morale and more significantly, on the organisation’s culture.

For the new employee, there can be intense psychological stress and, what may be worse than the individual leaving, is that they may end up ‘quitting but staying’. This is where they know it is the wrong organisation for them but they don’t have the confidence, attitude and/or energy to go through the hiring process all over again.

Consistent with our selection philosophy, our aim is to ensure the closest possible fit with the organisation as soon as possible. Following our selection process, we assist employees in their new roles for the first 3 critical months after their appointment.
