Lisa Perino - Director Human Resources Operations, Florida Power & Light

The onboarding process is one that can make or break a new employee’s first impression of their company.

Many companies have resorted to automating onboarding, especially as the shift to remote work has made in-person onboarding difficult at best. This session will:

• Detail how Florida Power & Light went from manual to automated onboarding processes, 

• Address key metrics attained after the automation roll out that proved ROI on the strategy

• Highlight the bumps in the road that were immediately addressed and how the company pivoted to right the ship
