Schola Consult Co., Ltd. (hereinafter 'the Company'), which has supported the organizational culture reform of over 2,000 companies since its establishment in 1986, is pleased to announce the release of a checklist titled '10 Articles of Mind for Supervisors Welcoming New Employees,' aimed at preventing the early turnover of new employees.
As the April hiring season passes and new employees begin their assignments and full-fledged work, some are entering a period where anxieties such as a 'gap in expectations' and 'difficulty in consulting' gradually become apparent. Stumbling at this initial stage poses a risk of decreased engagement and, consequently, early turnover. Therefore, ensuring the psychological safety of new employees around the one-month mark is crucial.
The Company has supported the organizational culture reform of over 2,000 companies and public institutions, led a cumulative total of over 150,000 Off-site Meetings®, and coordinated genuine dialogue among employees. Based on the knowledge cultivated through these experiences, we have organized the actions required of supervisors, such as building relationships where new employees can speak their minds freely and engaging with them in a way that they can feel the meaning and value of their work. Through this checklist, we aim to visualize communication and management points that are often overlooked in the workplace, leading to the retention and success of new employees.

【10 Articles of Mind for Supervisors Welcoming New Employees】
【Evaluation by Number of Checks】
☑ 4 or fewer
A state where new employees are likely to feel anxious or isolated.
They may be confused by 'unspoken rules' and unable to seek advice.
☑ 5 to 7
A state with basic security, but further motivation is desirable.
While there may be few complaints, their sense of satisfaction with their work and professional awareness may not be fully developed.
☑ 8 to 10
A good state where new employees are on a path to autonomous growth.
The value of the work is being communicated through dialogue, creating an environment where they can grow towards high standards.
【Explanation of Each Item】
Ⅰ. Gaps are natural. Overcome them by building a foundation for honest conversation.
1. Does the supervisor themself exude an 'aura of safety'?
New employees are more sensitive than we think to a supervisor's slight unfriendliness or sharp words. First, supervisors should self-check whether they are creating an atmosphere that says, 'It's okay to talk to me,' and tune their attitude and behavior to match the other person.
2. Are you in a relationship where they will talk to you first about their 'troubles'?
It's natural for there to be a gap between older and younger generations. The only way to know what someone with different values is thinking is to ask them directly. If a new employee confides, 'Actually, I'm having trouble,' it's a sign of trust. If you don't create that channel early on, the new employee can become isolated without the supervisor noticing, leading to sudden turnover.
3. Are you translating and conveying the workplace's 'unspoken rules'?
Every workplace has its 'unwritten norms' that aren't in the manual. Before a new employee gets confused, be proactive and explain, 'This might be a bit confusing, but...'.
