30-60-90 Day Onboarding Plan

Research by Glassdoor found that organizations with a strong onboarding process improve new hire retention by 82% — yet most managers in technical roles still wing the first 90 days.

TPD's free 30-60-90 Day Onboarding Plan gives you a structured framework to map out your new hire's first three months, set clear expectations from day one, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks during your busiest hiring season.

The importance of employer branding cannot be overstated. You need to understand how to tell the world about your organization’s culture, values and vision in a compelling and inspiring way if you want to attract and retain the right talent.

Here's what's inside:

• Days 1–30 | Foundation - Orientation, safety inductions, and team integration. Get your new hire connected to the right people, processes, and expectations before bad habits form.
• Days 31–60 | Integration - Independent contribution and relationship-building. Move your new hire from observer to contributor with clear milestones across results, learning, and key relationships.
• Days 61–90 | Performance - Independent delivery and future planning. Confirm your new hire is delivering against role KPIs, close any skill gaps, and set development goals for the next six months.

Plus a structured check-in template for your 30, 60, and 90-day conversations -- with six discussion questions, a notes section, and a summary grid so every check-in is a real conversation, not a formality.
