S:US STAFF SURVEY FEEDBACK: PROPOSED NEW DEFINITION
Coaching occurs when one person—typically a manager or another staff person with identified expertise—helps another staff person grow personally and professionally, enhancing their ability to learn, adapting to their work colleagues and environment and making the best use of their skills. It is a manager’s responsibility to find the best way to coach all their staff.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT: WHY IS CAREER DEVELOPMENT IMPORTANT?
12
A FEW OBSERVATIONS
• Coaching and performance management should be linked to career development.
• Jobs should be posted internally for staff first before announcing to the general public.
• Training is needed along the way to upskill staff.
• Current processes and technologies are not leveraged effectively to fully track skills/competencies/credentials and manage performance.
• Internal mobility process needs to be streamlined and transparent.
13
EMPLOYEE VALUE PROPOSITION…
We are committed to enhancing the lives of our staff and helping them grow personally and professionally by fostering an environment that promotes internal professional growth, continuous learning and career development tying back to our core values.

SKILLS REPOSITORY
A skills inventory keeps track of internal skills to inform organizational priorities
A skills inventory helps guide the following organizational priorities:
➢ Workforce Planning: Detects skills gaps and determines whether the current workforce has the required skills to support organizational goals.
➢ Career Pathing: Provides employees with information on common skills in potential future roles to inform their development.
➢ Learning and Development: Suggests development opportunities based on an employee’s existing skill proficiencies and career aspirations.
➢ Succession Planning: Determines which employees have the skills to fill the organization’s critical roles and if any development areas must be focused on to prepare employees for these roles.
➢ Project/Team Composition: Informs which employees to include in a project team based on what the project requirements are and who has the appropriate skills.
According to the McClean & Company Trends Survey report in 2020, despite all of these benefits
32% of organizations are not creating a skills inventory.

INTERNAL MOBILITY: WHERE WE WANT TO BE
• Are employees aware of their upskilling and internal mobility options and how they can pursue them?
• Are employees supported if they want to pursue an internal move?
• Are managers encouraged and incentivized to promote internal mobility and regularly discuss this option with their reports?
• Are HR staff empowered to pursue internal candidates, and do they understand which skills exist within the internal talent pool?
