Millennials. BYOD. Career lattices. With so many trends & technologies converging on career development, it’s hard to stay ahead of the curve. 

HRSG’s new eBook examines some of the big changes that have taken place and looks at how competencies can help your organization navigate them successfully.

 

The way we define career development has changed dramatically over the past decade. Rigidly defined career trajectories and hierarchies have given way to winding paths that lead in many different directions.

 

In response, development has evolved from a narrowly defined, prescriptive process to an autonomous and continuous one. And that process has come to play an important role not just in advancement, but in virtually every phase of the talent-management lifecycle.

 

These changes in the way career development is leveraged in the organization may pose challenges, but they are challenges worth addressing. Organizations that prioritize career development enjoy faster growth, higher profit margins, and deeper levels of employee engagement.
