As Mike Tyson says: "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth!" A 100 day personal "plan" sounds good from a management point of view. But if you have to frequently revisit that plan and change it over and over, it's perhaps better to reconsider your time scales. I'm sure there's some elite workplaces which are run like well-oiled machines, where the word "onboarding" means something and where people actually care how newcomers integrate. But far more common is a chaotic environment, not just when there's "fast growth" but also garden variety "Dilbert-ian" dysfunction or outright toxicity and non-cooperation. In these more common situations I think a much greater emphasis on relationship building works better and MUCH shorter time scales for "a plan"-- like 2 weeks at a time until the place starts to make sense and you know where the cliffs and sharp edges are.
