This is fun, so let’s get straight down to business! 10 to Grow means that at TOPdesk you can spend 10% of your contract hours plus a budget equivalent to 10% of your salary on personal development. So, you have the time and budget for training courses, masterclasses, books, seminars, and the like. In short – everything you need to let your talent grow and flourish.
10 to Grow: from photography to mindfulness
Generous revisions to TOPdesk’s personal development budget were announced at the Annual Meeting NL 2022. And boy, are we happy about it! We asked several TOPdeskers about the skills they were keen to explore or develop further using 10 to Grow.
While some wanted to learn how to write better or study photography or Photoshop, others were dreaming of brushing up their knowledge of new software and technologies. Or what about a course that teaches you how to successfully coach a team? In a few extra hours a week, you can follow a mindfulness workshop or a course on stress & burn-out coaching.
