WELCOME TO THE DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS
Corporate Senior Executive Management Office (CSEMO)“Managing the Executive Life-Cycle for VA”
September 9, 2014
Senior Executive Onboarding Background
• Senior Executive Onboarding is the way the Department acquires, receives and welcomes, and acclimates new leaders into the VA organizational culture and business.
• The purpose behind onboarding is to:– Make new senior executives feel welcome and comfortable in
their new surroundings.– Aid in their transition into role as strategic leaders for the
Department.– Provide a fast track to meaningful, productive work and strong
employee relationships.

The Need for Senior Executive Onboarding
• The first 100 days are critical to setting the tone:
“It is surprising how quickly you need to make decisions that are going to stick
and once you have made the decision, you are locked. It has to be really good
the first time.”
• Five common derailers* for new senior executives: Failure to establish partnerships and key connections. Lack political savvy to effectively navigate the organization. Failure to establish a culture fit. Unclear about role expectations.
Ineffective people management/team building skills.
* Based on survey conducted by Corporate Leadership Council.
