You didn't hire the wrong person — you onboarded them wrong

In this episode, Dr. Steve Vargo tackles a problem that quietly costs practices their best hires: a great candidate on paper who, a few months in, becomes quiet, hesitant, and error-prone.

Why does this happen?

Drawing on onboarding research and his own not-so-great first job experience (a training manual the size of a phone book), Steve unpacks the uncomfortable reality that most struggling new hires aren't a hiring mistake — they're an onboarding failure. He walks through the three things every new hire actually needs to succeed, the predictable emotional rollercoaster of someone's first 90 days, and the four most common onboarding mistakes well-meaning practices make without realizing it.

If you've ever wondered why a promising hire went from confident in the interview to silent in staff meetings, this episode will change how you think about their first 90 days — and give you a clearer way to set them up to stay.
