5. Career conversations
Why career development isn’t happening?
Not enough time
It sets unrealistic expectations
Big expectations = big disappointment
Project status quo
Only for high potentials
Why bother … they will just leave
Only this gives a significant return on the
development you invest
Not my job
It’s the employees job

I am comfortable entering the
conversation not knowing how it will turn
out
I can suspend judgment and skepticism
I expect to be surprised when I talk with
others
I can suspend my need to fix situations
and solve problems
I am sincerely interested in what most
people have to say
I believe there is no shame in admitting I
do not understand something

CONFIDENTIAL
I ask questions without having a right
answer in mind
I am energized by founding out what
makes others tick
I am motivated to dig deeper when I
sense hesitancy
I enjoy learning things about people that I
didn’t know before
I am comfortably following someone
else’s lead in a conversation
I believe that people are interesting and
complex
