The Leaders Guide to Personal Development Plans & One-on-One Meetings
Equip your managers to drive team growth through effective Personal Development Plans (PDPs) and impactful one-on-one meetings. Learn to build trust, strengthen engagement, create and drive goal-oriented accountability.
Designed specifically for managers and team leaders, although easily adaptable for non-people leaders as well, this coaching workshop delivers a practical framework for building meaningful development. Attendees will gain the skills to conduct impactful one-on-one meetings, a cornerstone of effective leadership, and learn to guide their teams in creating actionable Personal Development Plans. By mastering these techniques, leaders will empower their team members to not only reach their full potential but also consistently operate at a high-performance level, building motivation and driving tangible results.
This workshop goes beyond theoretical concepts, providing participants with hands-on exercises and real-world scenarios to ensure immediate application of learned skills. By implementing the structured framework for Personal Development Plans and one-on-one meetings, leaders will learn to create a culture of continuous development, where individual goals align with organisational objectives, leading to a motivated and high-performing team.
