Why managers, HR, and business owners need this modern employee development approach
Employee development plans have lost their way. They’ve become these huge, bloated HR beasts that smother their original intent: employee performance development. As a result they are a CHORE for both employee and manager.
Because of this enlarged scope – and the large labor costs and time involved to complete them – many companies have turned these into annual events or blow them off completely.
This further disengages employees and dilutes their focus compared to a quick quarterly review.
Even managers can become disengaged with the large scope of these development plans. They become an annual exercise in CYA – complete them because they are required.
If you want to stop wasting everyone’s valuable time with plans that are too large in scope, and focus on employee development, this template is for you.
This EDP Template Kit focuses on building a partnership of consent between employer and employee by including inputs from both. Its designed to be self-sufficient so it can be administered quickly each quarter.

Sales Rep example: Employee and manager quickly rate and rank proficiencies together, in 15 minutes or less
