Development

Close skills gaps and boost retention with personalized employee development 

Give every employee a dynamic development hub—personalized to their values, motivators, and aspirations—with feedback, mentoring, and learning that actually connects to where they want to go. Equip managers with coaching tools to guide growth, align development to business needs, and build stronger internal pipelines.

Why organizations use Fuel50 Development

Without visible growth paths and explainable recommendations, skill gaps persist, engagement drops, and mobility stalls. Development connects what employees want (growth, mentoring, learning) with what the business needs (readiness, retention, agility).

Turnover rises while skill gaps persist 

When people can’t see how to grow inside the company, they leave—and you keep paying to backfill. Development clarifies “what to grow next” and connects employees to the right actions.

Growth is opaque and inequitable  

Opportunities and learning are scattered across systems, so access isn’t transparent or fair. Development makes growth visible and personalized for every employee.

Managers lack the tools to guide development 

Annual reviews and spreadsheets can’t sustain modern growth. With the optional Coach add‑on, leaders get a clearer picture and coaching tools to support career conversations that actually move the needle.

Q4

One of the big ways Fuel50 is helping us close our skills and capability gaps is predominantly through identification. It enables you to see those skills, see those gaps, and then gives the HR and L&D teams the ability to then design interventions that are going to help close those gaps through mentors, feedback, and learning.

How Lennox Increased Internal Mobility And Employee Tenure Using Fuel50

On average, at Lennox, each internal move added five months of tenure. Multiply that across Lennox’s 4,800 tracked internal moves, and the company effectively retained more than 2,000 years’ worth of institutional knowledge. Each goal added to an IDP was linked to 25 extra days of tenure, and each developmental action to another 17 days. Even a modest level of engagement—just a few goals and actions—could easily translate into an additional year of tenure for an individual.

Development FAQ

Development addresses skill gaps, disengagement, and low internal mobility by giving every employee a personalized growth path and tools to act, leading to higher productivity, improved engagement, and reduced attrition. It also builds future-ready pipelines by aligning employee development to business needs and tracking growth over time.
Development is the growth engine: it centers on Resources, Personalize, Feedback, Mentor, and Learn to help people build the skills and confidence for what’s next. Gigs is experiential work-matching, and Mobility focuses on role transitions; both benefit from the skills and readiness built through Development.
Add Coach to equip leaders with coaching views and tools that strengthen career conversations and accountability. Add Learn+ to serve AI-matched, career-focused learning from your LMS; this requires Skills Architecture to align learning to role- and skill-needs.
The Workday Connector supports outbound syncs for Goals/Actions and Feedback, and inbound flows for learning and vacancies to keep performance and development aligned in the flow of work. The Workday Goals Outbound integration mirrors Fuel50 development goals and milestones into Workday so they’re visible during performance check-ins.
With Coach, leaders see employee insights and coaching tools that make career discussions clearer, fairer, and tied to business priorities. Development activity also flows into Insights so leaders can see feature adoption and skill-growth impact across teams.
Insights maps Development activity into dashboards like Feature Adoption, Drivers of Skill Growth, Skills Gained/Retained, and Feature Impact to show both usage and outcomes. The new Insights product is designed to quantify value stories (e.g., skill growth, internal movement, engagement signals) and is more impactful as more modules—like Development—are in use.
Delivery includes dedicated project management, defined configuration/testing cycles, and value and skills strategy consulting (Value Blueprint, post‑launch analyses) to tie Development to measurable outcomes. You’ll also get post‑launch configuration hours and knowledge base access to sustain improvements.
