The Art and Science of Onboarding

Ted Tencza Head of Engineering Prospa

Bringing new people on to the team can be stressful for both the new person and the current team. This talk outlines 10 principles that organisations can follow to radically improve their new hire onboarding process. It doesn't attempt to prescribe an actual program, but rather gives leaders the tools they need to design one that fits their circumstances.

Ted Tencza

Ted has been a Software/Web development professional since 1997, the last 13 of which have been in leadership roles. Currently, Ted is Head of Engineering at Prospa.

Prior to Prospa, Ted managed multiple teams at finder.com.au, Bigcommerce, and Atlassian, focusing specifically on SaaS offerings, as well as working on improving the recruiting, hiring, and onboarding of new developers.

Don't miss your chance to see Ted Tencza and many other inspiring speakers at Culture 18.

Tickets start at $695, for an in-depth day on building great teams and cultures.

About Us

Co-founded and now run by John Allsopp, Web Directions has for over a decade brought together leading developers, engineers, visual, IxD, UX and product designers, Art and Creative Directors, product managers indeed everyone involved in producing web and digital products to learn from one another, and the World's leading experts across this vast field.

We spend our lives thinking about what comes next, keeping up with trends in technology, practices and processes, and filtering the hype, to make sure you don't miss trends that matter, and don't waste time on hype that doesn't.

We promise attending one of our events will leave you significantly better versed in the challenges you face day to day, and in solutions for addressing them.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we're switching things up a bit for 2020. We'll be organising Product, Design, and Code as online conferences, and our annual extravaganza, Web Directions Summit will take place in Sydney as soon as it is practicable in late 2020 or early 2021.
