Overview
In order to build internal bench strength and have skilled employees who can be moved into the right roles at the right time, we believe that employees must take ownership for their own career development.

Career Development Training for Managers is built to facilitate workforce readiness, develop employees who are engaged in the business, and improve employee tenure.

The career development programs are designed to provide employees, their managers, and internal career coaches with a clear roadmap of how to develop a meaningful and rewarding career.  They also provide proven tools, assessments, and skills required to make it happen.

The payoff for developing careers within the organization is longer tenure, lower cost of recruiting, higher levels of contribution as employee potential is realized, and improved employment branding as an employer of choice.

The payoff to employees is less job stress, higher motivation, and the pride and satisfaction one experiences when making full use of one’s strengths and natural talents.

Description
Career Development Training for Managers is a customized and experiential workshop specifically designed to give managers a clear picture of their roles and responsibilities in developing the careers of their direct reports.

This proven career development workshop introduces a four-step career development best practices process for the manager to follow, builds the critical skills for career development discussions, and provides a career development toolkit to support employee assessments and career path planning.

Program Objectives
In this proven and experiential career development workshop, people managers learn how to:

  • Understand the business case for career development efforts.
  • Clarify the various roles in Career Development: managers, employees, and the organization.
  • Identify and overcome the top barriers managers face with career development.
  • Implement a step-by-step process to guide manager career development practices.
  • Help employees assess the right job fit based on their skills, natural talents, passions, and the work that the organization needs accomplished.
  • Become more effective at career development interaction skills and discussions.
  • Create an action plan for supporting career development on your team.

Target Audience
Managers who want to better develop the careers of their direct reports.

You will know you are headed in the right direction when your employees:

  • Find their job interesting and challenging.
  • See professional growth and career development opportunities for themselves in your organization.
  • Are able to utilize their strengths.

Career Development Training for Managers is often combined with our Career Development for Employees workshop and toolkit to help employees take effective ownership of their future career development.

The career development offerings share a core set of career development concepts and tools making it possible to deploy all three components together for maximum impact, combine two, or implement just one component as a stand-alone intervention.

The Career Development for Managers workshop include the following career development tools:

  • Career Development Preparation Tools
    Manager’s Preparation Worksheet, Career Development Meeting Planner, and ‘Nine Box’ Readiness Evaluation Tools

  • Career Development Self-Assessment Tools
    Employee Values Self- Assessment, Career Assets Summary Tool,  ‘Box Five’ Activity Worksheet and Cards, Informational Interview Planner, and Scanning Planner

  • Career Development Planning Tools
