In developmental conversations, asking employees to reflect on their performance and then come prepared with their own insights and questions. So going back to giving some breathing room for folks, you know, giving, giving their team members the space to really reflect, put some insights or questions together and then come into that meeting feeling prepared. And then once in the meeting, the, the manager with Deliberative can offer more of that balance perspective by discussing both the strengths of the individual and those areas for improvement. I would say as opportunities for action, once they start to really work through the, the Career Development Plan and what's working and what isn't, maybe encouraging the team member to come up with their own contingency plans, in case anything or any challenges arise on their, you know, developmental journey in the future could be a key takeaway for that person, for that employee.
Speaker 1
Jim Collison I picture the managers superimposing a little bit of their own deliberative on, in an area of saying, Hey, you take some time, you don't have to do this all the time, but I want you to take some time. Take some dedicated time, break out, cut outs. Don't do, this is the hardest for me. I sit down to do things like this. And then I'm doing about 5 other things at the same time, you know. We were in the middle of doing some estate planning. And of course, they have a whole bunch of docs and a will and all these things to go through. And I, even though I know it's a great idea, I have the hardest time just sitting down, going through and really working through the docs. I need to, I maybe need to get some help in that area to carve out some time to be intentional about that. Wrap this theme up for us, Jaclynn, final thoughts as we think about deliberative?
