Onboarding (hr training & zombification)

Effy decided to be metaphorical today, taking on human resource's onboarding process and zombification!
As defined by the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM), onboarding "is the process of integrating a new employee with a company and its culture, as well as getting a new hire the tools and information needed to become a productive member of the team."
Well executed onboarding have several benefits. To improve onboarding program's efficiency, HR departments employ numerous strategies and methods and a lot of academic materials on the subject is available in specialized libraries. Oddly enough, most authors overlook the issue of new employees' own individual personality, disregarding possible conflicts with the onboarding program content. Instead, they focus on programs' delivery method, effective here often translated into transposing required knowledge into newly hired. The transfer back into the organization is mostly under rated.
So overall, it is a well-established practice that onboarding programs are less focused on integration, and more on assimilation.
Which brings another definition from the Medical Dictionary to mind, the one (slightly altered) of zombification: "The purported conversion [...] to a state in which the awareness of an individual is retained [...] while the body, lacking will or agency, becomes the slave [...]. Zombification is deemed to be murder in Haiti even if the victim is manifestly still alive. The state is either induced by various poisons or by strong suggestion in a context of powerful superstitious belief."
