PROFESSIONAL GOALS/MOTIVATIONS
What are my professional growth and career aspirations?
How do I think these aspirations can best be met at Yale?
Professionally to build my effectiveness as a leader and manager of staff. Be
seen as someone others want to work for – an attractor of talent if you will
- by leveraging opportunities to develop, coach and grow my employees.
TALENTS OR STRENGTHS TO USE MORE (3-5)
What are my talents and strengths?
DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES (1-2)
What knowledge or skills do I need to
enhance?
As a manager I see my strengths as:
Knowledgeable and experienced
Fair and open-minded
Comfortable taking charge
Strong communications skills
Lead by example
Strengthen my leadership capabilities
by:
Developing my coaching skills to
get the best from my staff.
Push myself to delegate more,
rather than being the “chief
problem solver” for staff.
FOCUSED IDP OBJECTIVES AND ACTIONS STEPS
What development goals do I have for the next 12 months? The next five years?
What specific actions can I take to achieve these goals?
Seek out and participate in training opportunity aimed at being a more effective
coach by end of 2
nd
Qrtr. Track and measure my own actions with employees
throughout the 3
rd
and 4
th
Qrtr.
Identify a “peer” coach to check in with and to support and help me stay
focused on my efforts to adopt a coaching style more often.
Schedule 1:1 meetings with each staff member to obtain a better understanding
of what they need from me as a coach – how can I help empower them to do
their jobs better, what can I delegate to them to grow their capabilities.
Schedule midyear check in to get their feedback.
