Managing Career Growth: Effective progression planning and 121s

Introduction:

In this webinar we will explore the critical elements of progression frameworks, fostering career development, and promoting transparency within your organisation. In today's TA landscape, employees increasingly seek a clear understanding of where they stand in their careers and where they're headed. As leaders, it's our responsibility to provide guidance, support, and direction to our team members. This is where progression plans come into play.

We will be joined by Luke Victor, from Cleo, who have a transparent progression framework policy. Luke leads the Tech Talent Team, overseeing the growth and development of a team of Senior Talent Partners, ensuring that their development is intrinsically tied to delivery and performance in the role. He does this by using Cleo’s progression framework, coupled with personal development plans that focus on behaviours instead of skills, and frequent one-on-one meetings to discuss progress and growth.

Progression plans are more than just a buzzword; they are an essential component of modern talent management strategies. They empower both employees and employers by offering a structured roadmap for career advancement, fostering professional growth, and aligning personal aspirations with company goals. Transparency in this process is paramount to creating an environment of trust and motivation.

What you will get from the session:

* A deeper understanding of the importance of progression plans, focused both on skills and behaviours

* Knowledge of the steps you can take to create an effective plan, and how to roll out similar frameworks across your teams and companies

* Best practices for running one-on-one meetings with your direct reports, including frequency, topics of discussion, and performance deep dives
