Humanising Onboarding: Helping New Team Members Find their Feet in the World...
summary
Explains concrete onboarding steps that raise new team members’ self-efficacy: an ordered backlog that starts with a successful CF push, then adds service creation, moves to BOSH concepts via BOSH Lite and local BOSH director deployments, and finishes with building pipelines like create a Concourse job. Recommends carving out dedicated learning time, providing realistic technical feedback from credible teammates, and giving isolated “play” environments (CF Dev, local BOSH/Concourse) so newcomers can experiment without risking production.
