Welcome to Month 2 of your onboarding training!
Here's what we have for you this month:
- Finding a mentor
- The second check-in for your 30-60-90 day plan
We think that every associate deserves an opportunity to be exposed to new ideas and to learn from the people around them. That's why, this month, we're encouraging you to reach out to another associate who might become your mentor.
What does a mentor do at Walmart? How do you even find one? Don't worry, we've got you covered. Head over to the Mentoring Matters page, where you'll see tips for finding a mentor, being a successful mentee, and much more.
Your goal this month is to schedule a meeting for next month with a potential mentor.
You may find these resources from the Mentoring Matters page to be particularly helpful:
You can also you use Mentor Match to match you with an available mentor registered.
You've almost reached the 60-day mark! Take some time towards the end of this month to review your 30-60-90 day plan with your leader. Determine a time near the end of the month that works for both of you and send a meeting invite. Include your plan (with status updates) in the meeting invite so your leader can review it ahead of time. You may also want to block out time throughout the month to focus on any goal-related tasks before you meet with your leader.
Be sure to discuss the following:
1. Have you met your goals for the first 60 days? Have you completed all your tasks?
- Do you see any opportunities to build on your successes?
- For any unexpected challenges or uncompleted tasks – what are some steps you can take toward addressing them?
2. How are you progressing towards your 90-day goals and tasks?
- Do you need to take any extra steps to meet them?
- Would you like to add, remove, or change any goals?
3. How are you feeling overall? Is there anything more your leader can do to support you?
