Interpersonal Relationships -Coaching – Through coaching within the L&D team, I will enhance my current knowledge and gain expertise in the L&D role. I will request the coaching and feedback of my manager and peers to attain this goal.

Mentoring – I will partner with a professional in the L&D field under a mentorship program. This will assist me in developing my skills and obtain support from an experienced individual whom can not only offer me growth opportunities in learning but also provide feedback and insight as to the areas in which I would need to focus to achieve my goals. According to Noe (2013), “a mentor is an experience, productive senior employee who helps develop a less experienced employee (the protégé)”. As such, as part of my search for a mentor, I will ensure that the individual whom I select as a mentor, possesses the experienced required to be an effective model for me.

Formal Education – I will pursue certification in PHR through additional training and preparation course. I will also pursue additional training within the L & D field through seminars and trainings offered by ASTD through which I am a member.
