Promote From Within

Develop an Action Plan

Ideally, you want to implement evaluation tools for management. The process requires developing competencies; creating and administering the evaluation; analyzing the results; and setting an action plan to improve identified competencies. This process should be administered twice a year. An action plan, which includes a timetable, should spell out exactly what will be done with the individual(s) who either meet, exceed or fail to meet the established competencies. For example, will you promote them, offer additional training, cross-train, mentor or terminate employment?
