People leaders, Human Resource Business Partners (HRBPs), and mentors are all great resources to reach out to for guidance with professional development.

For those newer to CSL, taking time to gain experience in current roles and leveraging ongoing CSL enrichment opportunities are key next steps. Enrichment opportunities are still quite beneficial for someone wanting to stay in their current role yet broaden their skill set.

Since Michelle already has extensive experience both at CSL and in her current role and is now looking to make a lateral move, she should integrate mentoring and enrichment opportunities as supportive tools throughout her career and development planning processes rather than as one-off occurrences. Michelle’s HRBP guides her to begin the career planning process.
