Description:

Managing Development Planning™ is a highly interactive, down-to-earth program, drawn directly from the experiences of managers like you.

The purpose of this program is to expand your ability to get results from others and to support their ongoing development by increasing your competence, ease and commitment in conducting career and development conversations with your employees.

The program introduces you to Tools for Development Conversations, including:

1. Career Drivers™: A Career Power Tool

Learn about 11 key career motivators, and how they influence an individual’s career and development decisions. Practice addressing different motivators in a way that increases your employees’ engagement in their development assignments.

2. The Motivation Scale

Finally! — a way to get instant feedback on chances for the success of any development effort. Combined with the Career Drivers™, this simple measure gives you a way to ratchet up an employee’s motivation when their engagement isn’t sufficient to ensure delivery on a goal. Learn new distinctions about development—beyond simple strengths and weaknesses—to help guide development plans with just the right emphasis for any employee.

3. Accomplishments Analysis

“The Swiss Army Knife of Development,” this process has numerous benefits and applications to help you navigate career or on-the-job development discussions.

4. Creating a Development Project

Development projects and assignments are the arena in which people actually grow their skills. Easy-to-use, but important criteria are presented for designing and collaborating on successful, motivated development assignments that address your key priorities while growing your employees’ abilities. Get practice in creating them and coaching others through the process.

5. Coaching Careers

Leave this day with a new toolkit, having practiced how to apply the tools in career conversations.

The most frequent comment on our evaluations: “This is one of the most practical management trainings I’ve ever done!”
