Employee Offboarding

Hi everyone,

I was recently asked about industry trends regarding offboarding employees and if there's any best practice on how to treat offboarding employees to encourage them to remain advocates of the organisation. 

Would anyone be willing to share what works for them in their organisation and how to best maintain great relationships with former employees?

Thank you in advance!

    Hopefully one that doesn't catch on  

  • funny though isn't it as on-boarding is used quite a lot!

  • Don't worry Keith - it will catch on. After all, there's plenty of folk want to show they are are the cutting edge of HR and not some old fogey or crumbly like me. :-)

    ........And on the deck of the drumming liner
    Watching the furrow that widens behind you,
    You shall not think 'the past is finished'
    Or 'the future is before us'.
    At nightfall, in the rigging and the aerial,
    Is a voice descanting (though not to the ear,
    The murmuring shell of time, and not in any language)
    'Fare forward, you who think that you are voyaging;
    You are not those who saw the harbour
    Receding, or those who will disembark.
    Here between the hither and the farther shore
    While time is withdrawn, consider the future
    And the past with an equal mind.
    At the moment which is not of action or inaction
    You can receive this: "on whatever sphere of being
    The mind of a man may be intent
    At the time of death"—that is the one action
    (And the time of death is every moment)
    Which shall fructify in the lives of others:
    And do not think of the fruit of action.
    Fare forward.
    O voyagers, O seamen,
    You who came to port, and you whose bodies
    Will suffer the trial and judgement of the sea,
    Or whatever event, this is your real destination.'
    So Krishna, as when he admonished Arjuna
    On the field of battle.
    Not fare well,
    But fare forward, voyagers.
