Individual Development Plan (IDP)
Structured personal plan in which the projection of an employee's career plan in the organization, short-medium term goals, objectives and strategies to achieve it are defined.
It is the sum of the efforts that a person makes to expand their knowledge and skills, and thus improve progressively in their career.
When the report interpretation process has finished, the next step is to create an action plan based on the feedback that was generated -by the Manager and the Employee themself- at your results review meeting.
Each goal or improvement challenge is broken down into small actions to make these goals more manageable and easy to achieve. Each of those milestones is then tracked and progress is checked.
The objective is to find out the goals to be achieved, by the person in charge and the collaborator, highlighting which strengths can be used the most to include them all in that action plan.
Without forgetting that the objectives must be realistic. In other words, specific, achievable, measurable and aligned with the organization. Combine elements in action plans with the expectations of each role and the organization.
