What is the Personal Development Plan (PDP)?
The Talent4LIFE personal development plan (PDP) is an online tool that can be used to support an employee appraisal or any other form of development talk between the employer/HR personnel and the individual employee. They will be guided through the process with information and tasks in work sheets.
When opening the tool online, the employer/HR personnel and the employee will receive core information on talent management and the use of the PDP and have access to a guideline for a step-by-step guidance.
Behind each of the four steps is a worksheet to be filled out by the employer/HR and employee together. The worksheets contain a set of questions and respective fields to fill out (e.g. ratings, hitlists, desired measures). All steps build on each other to some extent but it is not mandatory to fill out every sheet or every field.
