Despite economic conditions, unemployment levels, or any other business factor imaginable, your best employees – the ones you need most – want one thing from you, plain and simple: to support their growth and development. Study after study confirms that development is the single most powerful tool managers have for driving engagement, retention, productivity, and results. Yet, learning leaders know that career development is frequently the thing that gets sidelined unless or until the organization demands that some form be submitted during regular review cycles.
This session sheds a much-needed light on what managers can do – specifically within the time-starved, priority-rich, pressure-cooker environment in which they operate – to support employees’ careers with an individual development plan. It comes down to this: engage in short, ongoing conversations with employees about their career options, needs, and passions. It’s really that simple – and that complex.
Bev will utilize research from her new book Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go, 3rd Edition (hot off the press for this meeting) to demystify the current complexity, and she will also share her learning about preparing managers for the individual development plan (IDP) conversation.
Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go
Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go is filled with tips, guidelines, templates, and suggested conversation questions to help you develop your employees one conversation at a time.
