#40 - The Career Development Mistake That’s Costing You Top Talent (ft. Julie Winkle Giulioni)
If your employees are disengaged, there’s a 70% chance their manager is the problem. Yep, career development (or the lack of it) is a make-or-break factor for retention, engagement, and productivity.
In today's episode, I chat with career development expert Julie Winkle Giulioni about why leaders avoid career conversations, how to make them easier, and the one shift managers need to stop feeling overwhelmed!
Key themes:
- Why career development isn’t a ‘one-and-done’ task
- How bad managers kill engagement (without realizing it)
- The “fix-it reflex” and why it’s sabotaging your team
- Psychological safety and its role in retention
- How AI tools can make career development easier
