DEVELOP THROUGHOUT A CAREER USING TRADITIONAL AND UNTRADITIONAL TOOLS.

When the details of an individual’s career intersect with the details of an organization’s talent cycle, there is a fit.
A talent cycle is a series of processes that work together to create a consistent pool of people with the right skills and fit with the organization so that the organization is able to carry out its purpose.
It begins with:
(1) recruiting for defined positions;
(2) making the decision to hire;
(3) the onboarding process;
(4) the developmental and evaluation processes;
(5) career advancement, reward, recognition, and compensation; and
(6) termination. Development and evaluation work in tandem.
● The most widely accepted theories on how to develop new knowledge and skills in adults combine traditional learning methods, like lectures and reading with the ongoing application and practice of new behaviors over time with reinforcing and redirecting feedback to master a competency. After a person decides to strengthen a capability, that person studies and learns a new skill, then applies the skill to a real-life situation and practices it over time. Ideally, the learner receives outside feedback and reflects on its effectiveness until it becomes an outstanding strength admired by many and possessed by few people. Sometimes, performance coaching is included as a means to emphasize reflection.
● Coaching is the preferred method for helping senior leaders and “C-Suiters” to hone their leadership skills. Leadership development efforts that add objectively measurable value to any organization include using the skill with regular job duties. It is the extensive practice of a skill over time that transforms an average skill into an outstanding one.
● An important leadership skill for most lawyers is business development.
This is relationship-building communication that captures the attention of prospective clients and influences their decision to hire the lawyer. There are several components to the communication skill, including understanding and being able to notice communication preferences and differences, learning to adjust your own style, and when to say what in a “sales” conversation.
There is information to consume by reading or watching a video (traditional learning methods) followed with practice time, including role play, to improve new behaviours.
●Untraditional learning methods like role-play, performance feedback, and coaching support the required practice to transform knowledge into behaviour and beginner behaviour into talented behaviour.
● People become experts in a skill with practice and coaching. Think of top athletes and musicians. They all practised every day for many years before becoming experts in their fields. It’s the same for any skill. You learn how to do something, engage in intensive practice often with coaching, and then plateau without continued practice and an intention to improve.
● Whether a leader wants to hone business development or management skills, it takes an intensive learning period that may include watching other leaders, receiving formal and traditional training, coaching, and planning actions in advance.
