Help Them Grow: Beyond the Book

Engagement. Discretionary effort. Improved bottom-line results. What organization doesn’t want them? But the question really is: What do employees want? Interesting work and someone who cares about their growth and career. 

A focus on career development is a logical yet elusive solution. In today’s fast-paced, filled-to-capacity workplace, the traditional view of career development doesn’t seem to be getting as much traction as many organizations would like. A new lens and a new cadence are required to unleash the potential that a focus on development offers. 

Organizations —and the leaders within them— that embrace this new view succeed at integrating development into the day-to-day rhythm of the workflow in practical and powerful ways. This is the concept behind the Amazon bestseller, Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go: Career Conversations Employees Want. And this is what happens when that concept comes to life in a custom-developed learning solution. 

See dramatic development results when leaders learn how to: 

• Re-conceive “career development” in today’s evolving workplace 
• Overcome the common personal and organizational barriers to authentic development
