There are additional resources that can be used when onboarding senior and executive leaders at Virginia Tech. These resources provide more in-depth information about the culture and operational practices at the university. While designed for senior and executive leaders, you may find these resources valuable when onboarding any new leader on campus.

The below PDF guide can be shared with your new senior or executive leader as a resource. The guide contains information about Virginia Tech's history, structures such as governance and finances, procedural resources, and more.  It should be shared early in the onboarding process so the leader can refer to the guide frequently. If you desire a copy of this document in Word format, please contact Jessica Grimes at jetaylo2@vt.edu.

The below PDF checklist can be used by those responsible for onboarding new senior and executive leaders. In most cases, there is more than one person who will be helping with the onboarding process so determining who is responsible for each task will be important.
