New talents integration Explanation: "Intégration" = assimilation of a newcomer in a group. Most often, this is quite a long lasting process. "Induction" = introducing new employees. This process should give the individual confidence and acceptance on one's job as well as establish an easy working relationship with other colleagues. It may be relatively brief. "Talents": see the Gospel of Matthew (Parable of the Talents). |
