Paper-based induction. Hour-long face-to-face sessions covering basic information. New starters overwhelmed on day one.

Henry Boot Group needed a better way to welcome new talent. We built it.

The Problem:

Henry Boot, a well-established construction and property development company, had a predominantly paper-based, instructor-led induction process. This created:

• Inconsistent messaging across different locations

• Administrative burden on HR and managers

• Wasted face-to-face time covering standard information

• Difficulty accommodating remote new starters

• Poor first impressions for new employees

They wanted to modernise their induction while maintaining their professional brand and company culture.

Our Approach:

Henry Boot's L&D team had clear objectives:

• Create a digital module complementing face-to-face sessions

• Ensure consistent messaging about values, history, and policies

• Reduce administrative burden

• Accommodate both office-based and remote starters

• Present information in an engaging, memorable format

• Provide measurable completion data for compliance

Our design strategy focused on creating a modular, interactive, visually engaging, accessible, and responsive experience.
