DISCy Chicks

Employee Development with Assessments- Lifecycle part 4

Cindy Jacoby and Martha Forlines Season 6 Episode 8

Applying Assessment Results  for Employee Development


Cindy and Martha share their experience and wisdom in strategically developing your employees. The DISCy Chicks recommend one-on-one meetings with your direct reports once a week for thirty minutes, which are accountability meetings for both of you. They also recommend giving feedback in a very specific way vs. a very generalized way.  

Remember to review your employee's assessment to make sure you are communicating with their style in mind to make your time together more effective.  In these meetings you can flex your coaching muscles and help your employees to come of up with  their own solutions, where your role is to ask really good questions. Mentoring is also another way to grow your employees by pairing them with a mentor that has strengths your employee needs to more fully develop. Lastly, you can give directions when you delegated a new task your employee has never done before! As leaders you are persistently improving your self-awareness and for this we use the emotional intelligence assessment, which is very robust. Enjoy!!
