What’s in it for you and your organization? Employees who are skilled at the process of self-development are independent learners and thinkers who are more knowledgeable about the organization, less likely to exit, better able to respond to changing market conditions, and more positive about their jobs.  Bottom line: They
are more valuable to their organizations.
