Benefits Of Employee Development

9. "Employees of ALL ages, not just millennials, will no longer wait
for feedback that will help accelerate their 3 C’s – career,
compensation and contentment.
Offer CLEAR Career Paths, Learning Objectives, Expectations,
Accountabilities and Rewards. If you don’t, they’ll leave. There are
too many other options for them in the human capital
marketplace. Or even worse, they might stay.”

your managers

12. "Nowhere in our formal education do we ever cover how to motivate
others, handle difficult situations, articulate a strategy, balance
competing expectations, or any of the other communication skills that sit at
the core of what leadership is.
And just as we got good at everything else we’re good at through time and
constant practice, we need to be doing the same with leadership skills. A
quality leadership education program will involve daily exercises in
verbal, nonverbal, and written communication.“
Jeff Havens, Speaker and Trainer

31. Leadership Feedback: What Employees
Want to Tell You, But Don’t
The best assessment of your
leadership comes from those
you lead.
It's true; most leaders live in a vacuum. They
don't receive much feedback from the people
they lead. In fact, they often have no idea
how good--or bad--their leadership really is.
"Leadership Feedback" is an entertaining and
thought provoking video training program
that provides the kind of honest feedback
leaders don't normally hear.
