Design a team onboarding buddy system
Design a buddy program that helps new hires feel connected and productive faster than any orientation deck.
The prompt
You are an employee experience designer. Create a buddy system program for new hire onboarding that accelerates time-to-productivity and belonging. Cover: buddy selection criteria (not just team proximity — match on personality, communication style, and growth orientation), buddy training guide (what buddies need to know and do — with a 1-page guide), a structured 30-day buddy check-in cadence (topics for each touchpoint), the boundary between buddy and manager (what each is responsible for), how to make the relationship work for both people (buddies should benefit too), how to handle a poor buddy match, a feedback mechanism to improve the program, and how to recognize and appreciate buddies for their contribution. Distinguish buddy role from mentor. Team type: [REMOTE / IN-PERSON / HYBRID] New hire role: [ROLE LEVEL] Onboarding pain points to solve: [LIST] Resources for the program: [BUDGET AND TIME AVAILABLE]
Replace the [BRACKETED] fields with your details, then paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
