You\u2019d have to invest a lot of time in transmitting all this to new, externally sourced talent. Having an internal promotion plan also means that existing employees will adapt quickly to their new roles and become productive far more quickly, not to the mention savings in recruitment costs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-heading-2\">What happens if you don\u2019t have an internal leadership development plan?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Money isn\u2019t the only reason people decide to change jobs. If your company doesn\u2019t offer prospects for growth and internal promotion, employees may eventually feel stagnated and leave to pursue better opportunities in companies that do.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the meantime, they may feel demotivated and albeit unintentionally, offer an inferior service to your customers. And as we\u2019re well aware, dissatisfied customers make their voices heard via social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-heading-2\">How can Mapal help you implement a growth and development plan?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mapal offers a range of tools to help you build an effective internal leadership development programme.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-c7ebd8d6 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-list-dark\">\n<li>Engagement \u2014 Discover each team member\u2019s aspirations via quick pulse surveys and detect which ones have future leadership potential through feedback from peers, clients and managers.
