5 Strategic Questions to Design Your Career Path Framework
Designing a sustainable career path framework for employee growth requires a coordinated effort from a team of committed and engaged individuals. Such a task should not be undertaken lightly, but, instead, should involve considerable thought and input from those individuals who are certain to contribute in a positive manner. The end result — a path to success for talented employees — is also a key step in ensuring company success and long-term growth.
The following critical questions can help your organisation create and operate a sustainable career path framework.

What good is a programme that no longer meets the needs of its employees when market demands, demographics, and other factors change? Short-term success is a missed opportunity, a band-aid, a quick fix.
