Employee Development: Part 2 of Addressing the Great Reset

This is the second in a three part series on how to address the "great reset" that is occurring among employees across so many industries.  Major shifts in the workforce pose significant challenges in recruiting, retaining and developing employees.  Leaders need to shift accordingly.  Employee development is a key strategic opportunity meeting these challenges.  The first element is developing both the technical and interpersonal skills of employees.  These are sometimes referred to as "hard" and "soft" skills, but this overlooks that soft skills are actually the hardest skills of all to master!  The second element of employee development is personal and professional growth: defining a future beyond the job an employee has been hired to do.  Career paths are a powerful way to develop employees, and too often underutilized in many organizations.
