Publisher's summary

Study after study confirms that career development is the single most powerful tool managers have for driving retention, engagement, productivity, and results. Nevertheless, it’s frequently back-burnered. When asked why, managers say the number-one reason is that they just don’t have time - for the meetings, the forms, the administrative hoops. But there’s a better way.

Too many quotes

I felt there was some good information but way too quotes of he said and she said. It was read as though you were reading a script for a play.

Not Just for Work

This book provides great insight and is a great resource in developing relationships and not just at work. Many of the tools in this book can be used to connect, engage, grow, and help the develop of any group of people, not just employees.

I'm on the fence on this one!

Where does Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I'm on the fence on this one! The ideas are nice but overall this book is did not moved me like other audiobooks that I listen to.

This is the first time I've listened to a book of this kind (management) so it's a bit interesting. But the narrator is really dry. I can easily mistake it to a machine trying to read a book.

Why is this worth the buy?
This is recommended in our company so I listened to it. This is important to our CEO so I have to read it and sort of get in his mind on how he sees professional growth.

I found gems here like:
Hindsight, foresight, and insight conversations. I like the tern mentworking and I found it really practical.

How could the performance have been better?

I think they have to re-record this book. They have to change the robot... sorry the narrator in this book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Hindsight, foresight, and insight conversations. I like the tern mentworking and I found it really practical.

Detailed and practical

Sums up employee development in a comprehensive and practical way in an extremely short duration.

easy read - lots of ideas

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

a good compilation of ideas based around a shift in mindset around how we see employees.
