How to manage high potentials

Fostering career growth and development for employees can lead to a stronger reputation for managers and the company. By actively supporting employees in exploring other opportunities and offering guidance, managers can create a culture that values individual growth. This can result in attracting talented people back to the company and enabling them to thrive in their roles. Operationalizing this approach can involve incorporating career development discussions into regular one-on-one meetings and openly discussing potential job offers with employees.
