Effective remote onboarding – how appreciation is felt even at a distance
Remote work is here to stay. But especially when new employees join, a key question arises: How does a sense of belonging develop when you don't meet in person?
This case page shows how companies use remote onboarding gifts from Dailydream to create a sense of closeness, appreciation and culture even from a distance.
Initial situation: Onboarding without an office
Remote or hybrid teams often lack:
- the first impression of the workplace
- informal encounters in the office
- a feeling of arrival
New employees often start out alone at the kitchen table or in their home office – with little emotional connection to the company.
Solution: Remote onboarding gifts from Dailydream
Companies opted for physical welcome signals that were sent directly to the residential address:
- Cuddly blankets: As a symbol of arrival & security
- Pillow: For relaxation after the workday
- Vouchers: For individual selection
