Motivated Development™ — A Strength-Based Approach
Most traditional development has been focused on overcoming competency gaps and improving weaknesses.Truth be told, most managers admit that they discuss the same weaknesses year in and year out, or end up at the annual review discussing previous development goals that somehow got set aside for “more important” priorities.
Motivated Development™ works by harnessing the most powerful motivators of employees to the managers’ mission-critical objectives, while focusing on strength-based development.Our work succeeds because it eliminates managers’ resistance to development by using employee development to directly address their business needs. Development is no longer seen as an extra “to-do” outside of their real business goals.
In addition, our Motivated Development™ multiplies employee engagement. By linking employees' development work to their specific motivators and strengths, employees and managers can tap into an almost unlimited reservoir of energy. In this way, the development process overcomes the inevitable barriers that stop people from accomplishing their development goals.
Motivated Development™ gives employees and managers an entirely new way to assess and create a shared vision of a completed development priority.
