Developing Others
|
Let's revisit our sports analogy. Coaches and recruiters concentrate on finding
talent, but they also develop players into leaders by providing them with the opportunity and motivation to excel.
Strong managers see the skillsets but also look for the potential in their employees. Granted, most managers are extremely busy dealing with the demands of the day, so employee development falls lower in the priority list than putting out the daily fires. But this reactive mode pushes managers to recruit experience rather than develop potential.
This section of the Manager's Toolkit will guide you in ways to provide employees with incentives and opportunities to grow. Select one of the blueprint categories above to take a closer look at Developing Others.
