Growth Beyond the Ladder - https://www.jillwetzler.com/resources/growth-beyond-the-ladder

As managers, we play a pivotal role in how our direct reports experience growth at work. Yet too often, growth conversations stall due to constraints in the organization: outdated or undefined career frameworks, a shortage of high-profile projects, or limited budgets and hiring freezes. Even when these factors are beyond our control, we have more influence than we think.

In this talk, we'll reframe how to support meaningful growth in ways that extend beyond the job ladder. You'll learn how to craft right-sized opportunities that strike the balance between providing guidance and granting autonomy. You’ll be able to identify limiting factors in a direct report’s progress and formulate strategies to address them. And you’ll leave with a structured framework for building concrete, actionable growth plans tailored to each person on your team.
