DescriptionOur Confident Career Conversations programme provides supervisors with the practical skills and tools to empower trainees to take ownership of their career development. Organisation politics. Egos. Challenging economic times. No wonder people can find it hard to talk about career development. Let's face it. Opening up a sensitive issue like career progression can weigh heavily on even the most experienced shoulders. Where should you start? What questions should you ask? How do you help employees develop their careers? How do you deal with some of the dilemmas that might come up? Confident Career Conversations will give you the practical tools and skills you need.

Aims

Our Career Conversation Toolkit and Confident Career Conversations Programme will provide people with the skills and confidence to have meaningful career conversations. 

The Career Conversations Toolkit gives supervisors the practical tools, structure and questions to have effective career conversations that will engage, retain and develop their trainees without taking up lots of time. The Career Conversation Toolkit is a set of practical card-based tools for supervisors, mentors and coaches. It provides them with a flexible approach which means individuals take ownership for their career development and they don't have to have all the answers.
