I hear about so many different types of learning and professional development in the workplace, from training to coaching and so on. What are the differences between them, and which one is best for me and for my team?

Professional development in the workplace can be overwhelming if you don’t know where to start. There are four main categories they fall under: Training, Facilitation, Leadership Development, and Coaching. Below is a guide that outlines each method to help you figure out what you are looking for and which one would be the best fit for you.

And don’t forget, many times these various methods are compatible with each other and can go together. For instance, some people find it helpful to have a coach while they are in a leadership development program.

Best of luck as you invest in your personal and professional growth!
