Question: Cross training opportunities: There is so
much competitiveness (ICTAP, VEOA, etc).
Despite having degrees, some fields and series are extremely difficult
to move up/out from within for professional development (ie: Supply Tech). What can we do?
Answer: I would recommend not
limiting yourself to only Ft Stewart as the reality is there are only so many
positions on the TDA. Continue to strive
in making yourself marketable and more competitive. Cross training is very important to me, but
you have to also be mobile or open to relocation in order to move up
sometimes. This should be discussed with
your supervisor during counseling periods.
I encourage all employees to look at other opportunities for advancement/career
development and cross training certainly helps in making you marketable. This can be discussed and approved between
Directors and can even be split up over time (ie: 2 hrs/day). It’s all about taking care of employees and
is something outlined within my Annual Training Guidance.
