The Challenge
To upgrade its talent management processes, UCB, a global biopharma focusing on severe disease, required a comprehensive, step by step approach to employee development planning that would instill in leaders the confidence and the competence to guide their direct reports to produce effective development plans.
Our Solution
UCB received an efficient and focused development planning and gap prioritization process through our development approach. This method included a simple, two-draft process ensuring that we delivered a product that met UCB’s requirements, while structuring an efficient and effective working relationship between the two companies.
By making the course available online, UBC leaders could take it in as little as an hour, thus increasing the likelihood that they would complete it. The samples, tools and job aids made it easy for them to implement development planning with their direct reports.
The price per leader for the course was almost negligible, while the financial impact of employee development planning on the company could be measured in the millions.
