Not So Basic New Hire Orientatin.......2000-11-02
Having been a Human Resource Director for many years, I feel qualified to review Ms. Gust's book. It is very thorough, and covers everything you need to have a successful orientation. In a very organized and concise way Ms. Gust has arranged this book to be a tool for the employer to create a top notch orientation process. It puts together everything you need during an orientation process- all in one place. It is a "must have" reference for every Human Resource Department. In this day and age of continued recruitment and retention efforts for the best and the brightest the first impression (for a new employee) is critical. I applaud Ms. Gust for her stellar effort!!
Very useful.......2000-10-25
Found the book to be a great help in starting a new hire orientation program.
It saved me a ton of time, and had all the areas covered.
I recommend it.
Book Description
New employee orientation is the most commonly offered type of training in organizations, yet very few books have been published on the topic. Creative New Employee Orientation Programs is filled with downloadable, customizable training games, sample curriculum, handouts, and checklists used in leading organizations such as Arthur Anderson, Ford, Micron, and Alcatel. Whether creating an orientation program for the first time, enhancing an existing program, or moving orientation on-line, HR pros will find ideas and tools they can use immediately.
Customer Reviews:
Helpful guidelines.......2007-06-01
This book is a great place to start when creating or updating an employee orientation. The nice thing about it is you can use some or all of the information provided to suit your needs. It is organized well and is easy to find what you're looking for.
great service.......2006-01-15
great service, excellent book
Everything Orientation.......2005-06-21
This is a compendium of almost everything that one might need to create or improve existing orientation programs. From best practices in orientation videos, small businesses, intern & buddy programs to case studies from companies like Ford and Alcatel.
The book also includes numerous useful lists, tools and aids that can be reproduced or used as a basic template for planning new orientation as well as evaluating and improving existent programs. In other words, this is a practical book filled with implementable ideas and suggestions guaranteed to make your new hires feel 'special' and at the same time, taking them through all the knowledge and information bits that they need to learn in a fun and engaging manner.
I found the case studies chapters very informative and particularly enjoyed Part 5 of the book: Orientation Games & Activities which includes 18 very useful and effective games like the hunt for company policies which turns a normally boring part of any orientation program into a really fun activity.
Also quite useful was the Part 6: Orientation Checklists & Surveys covering such areas as 'Before the Employee's First Day'; 'I'm New Here - What Should I Learn?'; and 'A 90-day New Employee Survey'.
Highly Recommended!.......2003-08-28
I have often been asked how new employee orientation programs can be both lively and informative. I have recommended Doris Sim's terrific book to several people. Routinely, I am thanked for passing along this title. It has helped many companies.
Book Description
If you ever have to design new employee orientation programs at the organizational or departmental level, here's a guide that will make the process much easier and help you solve the most common challenges you are likely to face. Use the customizable PowerPoint(tm) presentation slides to expedite your new employee training and get new hires up-to-speed in a flash.
Customer Reviews:
Very good resource.......2007-05-25
Really liked this book. I have already flagged a number of tools I could use in my orientation program. The CDROM is helpful as well as the resource sheets and presentations are already made, so I can just tweak them for my purposes. Recommend to almost anyone looking to re-tool their orientation program.
Book Description
Create a dynamic, effective orientation program!

Use this bestselling resource to meet orientation objectives such as:
Provide critical information and resources in a timely manner
Make the new employee independently productive quickly
Teach essential safety and job skills...and more!
Successful New Employee Orientation will help you design or revise an orientation program that is effective and full of variety. It offers a wealth of suggestions and includes myriad checklists, examples, sample letters, activities, and evaluation forms. A CD-ROM with presentation slides and customizable forms is also included.
Even if you're a novice, these user-friendly materials will help you create a vibrant orientation program that will make your new hires feel welcome and give them the resources they need to be confident when they start their new jobs.

Book Description
Nine years after the publication of Comets and the Origin and Evolution of Life, one of the pioneering books in Astrobiology, this second edition revisits the role comets may have played in the origins and evolution of life. Recent analyses of Antarctic micrometeorites and ancient rocks in Australia and South Africa, the continuing progress in discovering complex organic macromolecules in comets, protostars and interstellar clouds, new insights into organic synthesis in comets, and numerical simulations of comet impacts on the Earth and other members of the solar system yield a spectacular wealth of new results.
This second edition is thus actually a new book. As the first edition it is intended as a comprehensive review of current research, accessible to graduate students and others new to the field. Each chapter was prepared by experts to give an overview of an aspect of the field, and carefully revised by the editors for uniformity in style and presentation.

Comets important in the evolution of biosphere.......2000-11-26
Series of articles considering the role of comets in the evolution of Earth's biosphere. For example, A. Delsemme writes about The Origin of the Atmosphere and of the Oceans. It is argued that Earth's atmosphere and its oceans, as well as much of the carbon found in its biosphere, was brought to the Earth by comets. Although present-day impacts of comets are modest, in the first billion years, and especially first half billion years, of the Earth's existence, a large bombardment of comets occurred, as reflected by the cratering record observed on the Moon, Mars and Mercury. The cometary delivery of matter would explain the siderophile metals in the Earth's crust, and would explain how an ocean and atmosphere remained despite depletion by large body impacts.
