Everyone says employee development is a priority.
But the data tells a different story.
💡 75% of organizations prioritize employee development.
⚡Only 12% excel at it.
💡Just 22% rate managers as highly effective at developing employees.
⚡57% say lack of time is the biggest barrier.
The gap isn't in strategy. It's in ex*****on.
Too many organizations are relying on managers who haven’t been equipped to develop talent, while career conversations and development planning fall by the wayside.
The result? Employees struggle to see a future inside the organization and start looking elsewhere.
The good news: some organizations are getting it right.
