Posted in Career Pathway Systems Challenges and Successes

I believe the biggest challenge in supporting someone through the career pathway system is helping them get through the barriers that they may have. Depending on the barrier, the pathway could take a very long time and even through SMART goals, it can be difficult to keep someone motivated and on track when they have so much holding them back.

Posted in Strategies for Facilitating Difficult Meeting Conversations

I once had a meeting where the training team was trying to decide how to best train a difficult new employee. I was not the sole facilitator but I was one of the more vocal members of the training team. Some good progress was made in the meeting but it did not do much to relieve the tension in the training team. If I were to have that meeting after this module, the most important factor I would change is simply coming more prepared to the meeting. For future meetings, I will make sure to have a clear agenda and set of questions to keep meetings on track.
