Growth Plans are used to develop people over time.
They focus on improving:
- Performance Drivers (how you work)
- Role Skills (what you can do)
Each plan is structured, measurable, and connected to real work inside Dual Dash.
How Growth Plans Work
Growth Plans are built around a simple idea:
Focus on a small number of areas and improve them over time.
Each plan includes:
- Selected Performance Drivers or Role Skills
- A defined success outcome
- A development approach
- A set timeframe (typically 30, 60, or 90 days)
Plans are designed to be actionable, not theoretical.
Career Direction
Before creating a Growth Plan, users select a Career Direction.
Options include:
- New to role and building confidence
- Established and improving specific areas
- Performing well and preparing for a future role
- Strong performance and maintaining consistency
This determines what content is shown in the plan.
Current Role vs Future Role
Growth Plans can focus on:
Current Role
Users work on improving:
- Performance Drivers
- Role Skills tied to their current job
Future Role
If preparing for the next step, users can select a future role.
The plan will then include:
- Performance Drivers for that role
- Role Skills required for that role
This allows development before the role becomes available.
One Plan at a Time
Users can only have one active Growth Plan at a time.
This ensures:
- Focus
- Clarity
- Better follow-through
Once completed, a new plan can be created by selecting a new Career Direction.
Development Methods
Each Growth Plan includes a method for development.
Examples include:
- Coaching
- Mentoring
- Shadowing
- Training
- On-the-job practice
This defines how the skill or behavior will improve.
Connection to Meetings
Growth Plans are not separate from daily work.
They appear inside:
- 1:1 Meetings
This allows managers and employees to:
- Track progress
- Discuss challenges
- Adjust as needed
Development becomes part of regular conversations.
How Progress Is Measured
Progress is based on improvement in:
- Performance Drivers
- Role Skills
These are evaluated over time through:
- Feedback
- Observations
- Ongoing conversations
The goal is consistent growth, not one-time completion.
Why Growth Plans Matter
Growth Plans help organizations:
- Build internal talent
- Prepare employees for future roles
- Improve performance in current roles
They turn development into a system, not a one-time event.
What’s Next
Growth Plans focus on development over time.
