A Society for Human Resource Management employee
development survey published in April 2005 provided startling
results.
In almost all instances, Employee Development is
deemed to be of strategic importance as it increases the
likelihood of retaining talent and equips the organization for
growth.
However, formalized avenues for development are
not the norm. 83% of development programs are informal,
unstructured and not measured.
As a consequence, random results from
professional development are the norm because
“Most
organizations lack the mechanisms necessary to assure their
investments bring the anticipated return.”
You recognize that that the demands on your
leaders continue to increase. The bar is going up … and you may
not be comfortable with the plans to deal with these challenges.
