A GDP Overview

Each of our Graduate Development Programmes is designed to meet the organisation’s requirements and culture.

We would expect a programme to include at least some, or all of the following:

• Taking personal responsibility for your development
• Visioning and active planning for you career
• Developing assertiveness in the workplace
• Increasing self-awareness
• Increasing personal impact
• Developing workplace communication skills
• Developing successful working relationships
• Giving effective feedback to your manager
• Team roles and team development
• Increasing business awareness
• Increasing company knowledge
• Networking

We tend to take a modular approach over the course of six months to a year. There are interim activities and research projects to deliver to ensure transfer of learning between modules. We ensure the graduate’s line manager is fully engaged and aware of how to be organisationally ready to maximise the enhanced contribution our Graduates can make to their function.
