Evidence-Based Development Planning: What Actually Works (Video)
Most development plans fail because they focus on courses, guesswork, or long lists of unrelated activities.
In this short video, we explain how to build development plans that actually work: evidence-based, role-aligned,
and grounded in real capability growth.
This video covers:
• Common reasons development plans fail
• How to start with evidence, not learning
• The difference between skills, competency, and capability gaps
• Why good plans focus on 2–3 priorities
• Writing clear and observable development objectives
• How 70–20–10 works when used properly
• The role of Programmes in onboarding and career pathways
What Evidence-Based Development Looks Like
Effective development plans are built on evidence — role expectations, capability requirements, and actual performance.
They focus on the gaps that matter, not long lists of generic training.
A modern development plan includes:
• Objectives linked to capability or competency requirements
• Clear outcomes and timeframes
• Experiential learning, feedback, and targeted formal learning
• Regular review and tracked progress
• Structured Programmes for onboarding or career progression
This creates a development system that is measurable, meaningful, and aligned with real workforce capability.
The most effective approach is Human + AI:
AI suggests; humans review, validate, and decide.
