A Mini Case Study
Consider this situation:
Sally is a senior human resource specialist in her organization. She is interested in identifying, assessing and developing a leadership training program for high potentials in the organization. The executives are engaged and want Sally to move forward with the initiative as they are in the middle of succession planning and want to identify and get high potentials trained.
However, there is one small problem. Training has been cut for everyone else in the organization and, in fact, a number of employees who were scheduled to attend programs have been told they cannot attend because it is necessary to reduce expenses.
How will Sally keep those employees who are not high potentials engaged when they cannot attend any training programs?
Part II will provide some options for Sally to keep other employees engaged.
