Career conversations

Do others need your support to help them develop in their careers?

Having open and focussed conversations about your career can really help you to construct a great working journey in many different ways. This workshop equips you to have career conversations with your team members in a way that helps you to help them. Gone are the days of climbing a promotional ladder – better to think about moving via a lattice of pathways.

Keeping colleagues ‘on the move’ in an organisation is essential for their growth, development and well-being. Creating career pathways that are well thought through and meaningful also contribute towards employee retention, create more job satisfaction and potentially higher outputs.

Good for your team and really good for you too as a manager – as you will see individuals achieve more and play to their full potential.
