PocketCastsHave you been ignoring talent development within your team?
When you’re in the growing stages of your business, you might find it challenging to set aside time to train your team members so they can do more and advance to the next level. You hired them to do a particular set of tasks, and as long as they can complete that work, you push off the to-do of talent development. You don’t see the additional talent development as necessary because you assume you can always hire someone else when more advanced skills are required to meet your growing business’s needs.
However, there is a downside to ignoring talent development. When team members don’t feel like their company is investing in them, it can lower employee engagement, hurt retention rates, and impact your company’s overall growth because you’re not getting the best out of your team.
Celina Mattocks joins the Growing Your Team podcast to discuss the importance of talent development, how to help your team members gain new skills when you’re short on time, and how to ensure you always have the right skills throughout your growing teams.
