Looking Down the Road

Regardless of job level and title, many employees are interested in receiving advice on their careers. An excellent way to meet this need, recognize and reward your employees, and demonstrate your interest in their long-term growth and success is to arrange for them to receive some professional career counseling.

Your willingness to invest money in career planning and development leads the selected employees to sense that they are high performers and have high potential. This type of recognition is uplifting to them personally and can uplift their performance as well.

In addition, a career counseling program demonstrates management’s interest in each employee as an individual. It is highly rewarding for employees to have clearer self-insights, a better sense of direction and goals, and specific strategies to meet them, and these too are rewarding outcomes emanating from professional career planning.
