EXECUTIVE PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT
Looking inwards to develop outwards
PROBLEM
For many of us, our employers have always provided the development and training that we have needed not just to perform effectively in our roles but also to support our career aspirations. However with recent austerity measures alongside more limited opportunities to advance our careers, times have changed. Professional education, personal development, and career growth is now, more than ever, a matter of personal responsibility. A responsibility that can be daunting, hard to find time for and yet never more important.
SOLUTION
Utilising the benefits that external personal support provides can be the first step in working towards achieving your career goals. This is best described through the testimonial of one of our recent clients:
“..... I approached PPD wanting some professional development support in advance of Senior PNAC. I had spoken to other providers who offered coaching servicesandwhatwasonofferseemedtobe focused almost entirely on Assessment Centre techniqueratherthanpersonalandprofessional development. I had heard a lot from the College of Policing about how this type of coaching doesn’t help you prepare for the Assessment Centre so I decided to look elsewhere and found PPD. I have enjoyed working with my Personal Development Advisor, she has helped me to focus on my own personal development and preparation and also guided me as to how I can put myself in the role of ACC... for me that was the best preparation for the AC”.
