Succession planning has been a common theme in recent times and has given me the chance to seriously consider developing the team. Indeed this year has given ample opportunity to coach and improve those that work for me. But what about my personal development. I started 2010 with a clear view that it would be a challenging year; a sharp increase in the scale of responsibility including a broad geographical split and new born twins. All in all a lot to contend with.
But I am starting to get on top of things now. The last nine months have given me the chance to grow into the role and whilst it will be a long way before I am proficient, I am getting there. So now I need to consider what next. In order to keep growing and to improve the management capability further I need not only the short term goals that have underpinned the year so far, I now need a more strategic set of aspirations.
So this weeks short post is a placemarker to say that the weekly reflections are great; but it is now time for a deeper dive. Lets start to try and map out the next three years rather than the next three months.
