Problem

As an HRBP for Lighting Operations, we were facing the challenge of employee development and supervisor assessments. We realized that our current HR practices were not enough to keep up with the changing times and we needed to do something different.

We found that our employees were not motivated enough to learn new skills and take on new challenges. Additionally, we had no way of assessing their leadership potential or identifying those who could benefit from further training.

Solution

To address these issues, we decided to implement a comprehensive employee development program that included regular training sessions, mentorship opportunities, and leadership assessments to supervisors and first-level engineering employees.

Impact

Identified supervisor talents early on
Provided continued education to current and future supervisors
Increased retention by providing quality people development programs

Included status of supervisor development in the weekly leaderhsip standup meetings in the plan, and made it really visible to all levels.
