About Help Them Grow Or Watch Them Go: Career
Product Description The new edition of the bestselling employee development classic includes advice on engagement and retention in today's more flexible employment environment and a new chapter on creating a career development culture in your organization. Study after study confirms that career development is the single most powerful tool managers have for driving retention, engagement, productivity, and results. But most managers feel they just don't have time for it. This book offers a better way: frequent, short conversations with employees about themselves, their goals, and the business that can be integrated seamlessly into the normal course of business. Beverly Kaye and Julie Winkle Giulioni identify three broad types of conversations that will increase employees' awareness of their strengths, weaknesses, and interests; point out where their organization and their industry are headed; and help them pull all of that together to create forward momentum. And the new chapter includes an assessment so you can measure how well your current culture supports development--and how to improve it. Review “Filled with great examples, questions, and real-world approaches that fit into the workflow, this book brings a much-needed simplicity and personal touch back to career development.” —David Rodriguez, Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, Marriott International “Employees crave authentic conversations about their careers. Too frequently, managers shy away or simply don’t make the time. Bev and Julie remind us that it can be as simple as asking good questions—and they show us how with tips, examples, and suggestions that build confidence and competence.” —Louise Keefe, Global Senior Leader, Organization Effectiveness, Eaton “Every manager will find this short book to be long on practical ways to make career development happen.” —Jack Zenger, CEO, Zenger Folkman, and coauthor of the bestselling The Extraordinary Leader and The Extraordinary Coach “This book is an essential manual for managers and mentors who want to achieve success. Career planning does not have to be complicated or intimidating. The authors break it down into remarkably simple conversation topics with open-ended questions. The examples that have been threaded throughout are spot on and valuable. This will be an often-used and dog-eared resource on every desk!” —Bill Meeker, Chief Energy and Human Resources Officer, Diversey “At United Health Group, our company growth depends on the growth of our employees. When employees feel they can meet their career goals, that fuels engagement—one of the key drivers of our success. Bev and Julie hit the bull’s-eye by providing a compelling book that speaks to the everyday life of a manager. What a wonderful resource!” —Wendy Bloom, Senior Director, Talent Strategy, United Healthcare “Beverly and Julie have a remarkable gift of turning an important and complex topic into useful and simple ideas and practices. Their work will help leaders wisely invest in their employees and employees take responsibility for their personal development.” —Dave Ulrich, Professor of Business Administration, Ross School of Business, University of Michigan “Deceptively simple. Absolutely relevant. Bev and Julie demystify career development and give managers the key to unlocking the potential around them.” —Heidi Brandow, Director, Global Learning and Development, Tesla, Inc. “Life and business are all about where you pay attention.
