Wow! What a compliment. HR actually has a project this year to improve our communication surrounding CDP's (Career Development Plans). It is our goal to get more people focused on what they want to do next with a clearly articulated path to get there. We also want to do more to push the ball forward for both business and our work culture so if you think of where we can improve we are all ears! Reach out at feedback@bdainc.com.
