Building a great team is about more than just hiring talent—it's about growing existing talent too. While hiring fresh talent can bring new energy, developing talent from within often has better long-term benefits, especially with leadership roles. Here are four reasons why developing your existing talent works better: 1. Promoting from within, especially for senior roles, helps you spend less and allows you to allocate more resources toward training and development. 2.  It helps your employees see a clear path for advancement because potential for growth leads to stronger retention and a more positive company culture. 3.  Those who have grown with your company understand its unique operations, culture, and values, ensuring smoother transitions when roles need to be filled. 4. It often takes less time to fill senior roles with internal candidates since they already know your organization’s processes, minimizing downtime and disruption. At CareerWorks, we partner with healthcare and financial services employers to build a team of talents that have what it takes to grow while moving the organization forward.
