Our Development Centres are designed to support identifying development areas and meaningfully integrating feedback into future Development goals. This is done by focusing on key elements like participant experiences with the entire process, focusing on interpretation of inputs rather than the process by which they were collected and emphasizing action planning regarding a few key behavioral elements rather than just enumerating the strengths and development areas of participants.
