SAMPLE DEVELOPMENT PLAN “What” specifically do you want to develop? (Describe your objective in more detail)
Which HP Leadership Standard does this objective focus on?

goals (critical factor for making the
objective achievable).
BARRIERS:

barriers to achieve the objectives.
SUCCESS MEASURES:

Elaborate on the skills gap identified and what aspects of it do you want to pursue?
Example:Developing my influencing skills:1. Would like to be more
assertive when discussing interest -divergent issues
2. Broaden my perspectives and try to understand other party’s views
Consider the 70/20/10 learning guide and include mix of development platforms – Experience, Relationship & Education
Example:• Approach XXX to coach me
on my influencing skills and provide me with regular feedback
• Attend training on Influencing Skills
a) Outline the challenges faced
b) Highlight the support or resources required from manager / organization to close the gaps
Example:Challenges – Lacks of corporate perspective when dealing with channel partners
Support – Liaison and network with other BU to understand their strategy and value proposition
Define what success looks like if you successfully closed the gaps
Example:• Build trust and achieve win-
win solutions when negotiating and influencing distributors on the pricing strategy
• Demonstrated willingness by channel partners to accept and pilot test sale of premium products
Target Completion Date:Review with your manager to assess if the timeline is realistic and achievable
