There should be a self-actualization and assessment. It is a process in which we learn and acquire new skills. It is a program that can help an individual grow and explore.” Lifelong learning challenges “I belong in the business field, and the most challenging part is knowing the consumer’s psychology. What do they really want from a certain product. They have different perspectives, so it’s quite challenging to determine these kinds of matter.” Workforce challenges in your organization “The main challenge for my company is the diversity of my people’s personality. A good one on one talk could help resolve underlying issues.” RALPH LORENZ SIOPAN ADMISSION OFFICER, HEAD STI WEST NEGROS UNIVERISTY Most important issue related to career development “The most important issue is lack of interest of any employee being given the opportunity to train. It is a waste of money, time and effort. If the employee has no interest in further enhancing his/her skills then there will be no room for development.” Lifelong learning challenges “Keeping the employee’s will to work and maintain their enthusiasm in the workplace. We could respond in having leisure days for them and also have counselling sessions with employees.” Workforce challenges in your organization to which career development services and supports could respond “In my line of work, I need the whole school to cooperate with me and my team, to ensure that what we market is really observed in the school. It is sometimes difficult to reach out to other offices asking for help because some are not willing to go an extra mile. What we usually do is call for a meeting and discuss the things that all employees should know and understand.”
