I enjoyed this piece, Stephen. And I second @Brent's comments above. It can be so hard to find the resources to provide learning and development opportunities to seasoned employees when there is a non-stop influx of new hires whose needs are so urgent. But, without the investment of resources, those "steady eddie" employees may become disenchanted and head for the exit. I love the approach you are taking at Mill Creek, especially that your growth pathways are very clearly defined and communicated to teams. Thanks for sharing!
