The
Executive Directions Digest is a synthesis of both emerging and classic resources for career development
and succession planning at senior levels. The selection criteria are quality and relevance, the scope is global and the effect is
organizational through focus on individual growth. |
In our view, personal development is an evolutionary process of adaptation
to, and mastery of, a constantly changing environment. Consequently, effectiveness requires focus and sustained
encouragement supplemented with a ready supply of interesting, top quality
resources covering theory, practice and research. However, most managers are too busy performing
now to concentrate on developing the competencies they will need to advance their careers in the long term.
Our solution is to source and review these for you, then deliver the best materials you need for your unique situation.
Initially, there were only tailored recommendations for individual clients. The advent of web technology opened access
to a preselected reserve for our whole clientele. These are organized through the
Personal Competency and
Organizational Performance Driver
frameworks on the Cientia site. These categories are
identical to those used for the assessment reports
and career planning process. That practice has now grown into a semi-monthly announcement list of new resources and events added to the site archives.
If you are not a Cientia client, your name or email address has been
noticed and collected over many years from research, news, web sites and other sources used for developmental recommendations.
We have sent this newsletter because we genuinely believe you will be interested and appreciate the quality,

We encourage you to stay with us. We also appreciate suggestions
