Onboarding by product

Inspire onboarding

Audience: All employees – managers and individual contributors.
Outcomes: The ability to use the features and guides in Inspire to hone individual strengths, build meaningful working relationships, and fast-track development.


Below are our recommendations for managers and individual contributors. We’ll cover features and guides that will help with self-awareness and awareness of others. Being able to quickly understand and empathize with one another and learning how they’re wired to think, work, and communicate leads to more productive meetings, improved coaching and development conversations, and better working relationships overall.

For individual contributors

  • Review your Snapshot and Behavioral Report, focusing on preferred Work Styles, Strengths, and Caution Areas. View a sample Behavioral Report.
  • Review your Factors, Factor Combinations, and Reference Profile.
  • Attend a complimentary PI 101 session.
  • Review the Relationship Guide between you and your manager as well as any other team members you’ll work closely with. 
  • Review your self-development guides – particularly the Personal Development Guide and Management Skills Guide – with your manager. These guides help you build self-awareness and improve how you interact with your co-workers.
