Employee Development

Straight talk HR solutions HR Consultant Texas can help you with employee development whether you want to focus on your hyper potential employees or focus on your critical positions or focus on all your salary or your hourly rate that is up to you. We can meet you where you are.  

We will schedule a strategic meeting to discuss the ideas that you have in mind and why you are wanting employee development or needing employee development and then we will provide you all the options in our recommendation to what is the best path for you in your business. 

Why is employee development important?

High potential employees want to continue growing they want to continue to develop. They want to continue to grow their experience so you want to keep them motivated. You want to keep them engaged you want them to continue growing as part of your business and you always want to be prepared and have somebody in line to take over the next position that is critical to your organization.  I will provide an example to see if this helps if you have a group and you have one or two essential or critical positions for that group who would take their place today if that position or that person in that position lot today do you have anybody ready to take their position to fill that spot? Are they trained? Are they ready? 

Do they understand what you need from them? Are they ready now? Three months three years.? this is example of employee development is to have a strategy for your business and make sure that you have identified any gaps identified any critical positions. Identify the plan of who backfills those positions. Should that person leave or and be promoted  

Not only there’s an employee development plan of purpose for the employee to remain engaged and committed in advancing. It also serves a purpose for the business to be prepared. Should that employee lead and continue to develop others for that position and never be blindsided as much as possible?  

Straight talk HR solutions can help you schedule a strategic meeting to work with you to identify the positions work with you to identify and discuss the people and then create development plans for those key positions  

Once you see the visual in front of you, you were able to see where your gaps are clearly and what needs to happen to get that person ready for that position then we can work on a training plan or an action plan per individual to get them ready for that key position . 

You may think because you are a smaller business that you may need an you may not need an employee development plan but you do if you have key positions even if it’s 3 to 5 and those people walk out or leave who do you have ready to backfill their position? Is it a problem if you don’t have someone in that position if the answer is yes then you need an employee development plan.

You may ask yourself why would I need a development plan for my employees and if you would be in a bind if your key position left today if the person fill in your key position at that person walked out today would you be in a bind if the injury is yes this is the reason why you need an employee development plan. 

As you identify your key positions or critical positions for your business, did you want to identify who the current person is for that position then you want to evaluate whether there is anyone else in your organization who is ready to step in a position and the question would be are they ready to step in today, are they ready to step in in three months six months one year three years five years? And if they are not ready today, what gets them ready?  

These are the conversations that we would be having to create your strategic employee, developmental action plan. Again, if you feel that, you do not have key people in place to take those key in critical positions. We are in need of an employee developmental plan. This is where you contact us at straight talk HR solutions and schedule a strategic meeting to help build for you. We can help you identify your employees key strains in areas that need to be developed for key positions.

Once you have this in place in the next step would be to not only create specific individual development plans for the key people, but it would also be to communicate to these people without making a promise. You can have conversations of your expectations what you cannot do and do not want to do is promise them a position and you must train your supervisors to learn how to communicate as well without making promises to employees employees may hear something different because of what maybe said so it is very important to have a script of what the supervisors need to communicate to the employee.

Employee Development also keeps employees engaged which increases their productivity and improves employee morale; this is the ultimate goal is to keep employees engaged and committed to the business operations. Sometimes it isn’t about the money for employees it’s about feeing valued it is about opportunities it is about the supervisor being a leader and it is about culture; there is so many reasons why this is important to focus on employee development for at least your high potential employees to keep them retained and engaged.  Keeping your high potential employees will save you time and money vs losing them to a competitor.
