A leading cause of employee turnover is lack of career growth opportunities within one’s organization. According to research by McKinsey & Company, the leading reason employees quit their jobs from April 2021 to April 2022 was “lack of career development and advancement.”
Our latest CoachingOurselves topic, “Developing Your Career, Creating Your Future” addresses this head-on. It offers dedicated time for self-reflection and group sharing to enable employees to clarify their career aspirations and consider pathways forward. In today’s world of hybrid and remote work, the traditional avenues for recognizing career prospects within the organization are limited. This topic fosters a supportive environment, so participants are allies in identifying transferable strengths, pinpointing opportunities, and setting achievable goals. There will be time to map out potential trajectories for professional growth, inside and outside the organization.
Participants will also appreciate how to engage their managers as partners in their career journey and how to propose new challenges. In an era where personalized, dynamic career paths are becoming the new norm, its crucial for employees to proactively shape their futures.
Long-term aspirations shouldn’t always take the back seat to the daily task list whether employees are further along their career path or just starting out. The overall aim? Empowering participants to explore their potentials and unlock exciting opportunities.
