Development Planning
We believe each employee should be responsible for defining and sculpting their career path– with the right help, of course. Development planning enables employees to formalise their career goals and learning objectives, in order to develop their capability for current and future roles.
Talent Identification and Succession
For people who are committed to their careers and who perform exceptionally well, demonstrating capability and leadership, Telstra’s talent identification and succession programme is an opportunity to have their development and careers given greater support by the organisation.
Performance Feedback
An integral part of your career at Telstra is feedback on your performance. Regular reviews with your manager give you the opportunity to develop and refine your work and career objectives and to determine your progress towards the goals you have developed.
Internal Mobility
At Telstra we encourage the internal movement of our employees; after all, you’ve shown your commitment to us and now we’d like to show ours to you. Our positions are advertised internally, and current employees are encouraged to discuss progression opportunities with their managers.
