So if half of all employees have a had a career vision conversation. What's holding us back? In some organizations there may not be clear career paths or opportunities for advancement. So obviously that makes it difficult to have a productive conversation with your employees.

Additionally, some managers may be hesitant to have that conversation because they're not sure what's going to come out of it. Are they going to start looking for new opportunities? Will they expect a pay raise? Or will they really just become frustrated because they're not getting exactly what they need?

Managers, really, let's be honest, may not have been trained to have these kinds of conversations. So they lack the confidence to guide the conversation in a really intentional and thoughtful way. Fortunately, we have worked with thousands of managers to empower them to have more productive career conversations in a variety of workplace situations. So let's outline how to have a developmental conversation that supports career growth for your people.
