Write a buddy program guide. Company size and structure: [COMPANY_SIZE]. Typical new-hire roles: [ROLES]. Time buddies can give: [BUDDY_TIME]. Produce: the purpose of the program; buddy selection criteria (tenure of at least six months, positive attitude, time available, not the direct manager); a buddy role description (what they do and do not do); a 90-day checklist of meetings (day 1 lunch, weekly 20-minute check-ins in month one, then every two weeks); conversation starters; a list of things to explain that managers forget (unwritten rules, who to ask for what, tools, jargon glossary); guidance for confidentiality and when to refer a concern to HR or the manager; and feedback forms for both sides. Add a recognition idea for buddies, a workload rule (reduce other duties by a set amount), and measures of success (new-hire satisfaction, time to first independent task). Include a one-page handout for buddies. Use only what I provided and mark assumptions.
