Total Rewards in Action: A Practical Series for the HR Generalist- Building Modern Career Pathways
SUMMARY
Career growth is a critical yet often underdeveloped component of Total Rewards, particularly in small and mid-sized organizations. When employees lack clarity around how they can build skills, progress, and grow, engagement and retention suffer. This session focuses on the core career growth challenges HR teams face, including unclear role levels, inconsistent expectations, limited development structure, and weak communication, and examines how these gaps directly impact retention, internal mobility, and long-term organizational success.
Participants will learn how to reframe career growth as a structured, skills-based journey rather than a narrow focus on promotions. The session emphasizes practical, scalable approaches to building career path frameworks and skills roadmaps, as well as the importance of partnering with leaders to support meaningful career conversations and shared accountability for development. Attendees will leave with actionable tools they can immediately apply to strengthen career growth, engagement, and workforce readiness.
KEY OBJECTIVES
- Analyze key career growth challenges and how they affect engagement, retention, leadership development, and alignment with organizational goals and values.
- Apply career path and skills-based frameworks to create clear, equitable growth models that support internal mobility and workforce planning.
- Evaluate the role of leaders and managers in career development and identify HR strategies to enable effective career conversations and shared accountability for growth.
