You should expect the Pathway to be completed during the first six months in order to develop and consolidate the basic skills and approach expected from managers at Denbighshire. During this time, you will meet with your line manager regularly for your one to one meetings, to discuss your learning and so that they can also learn from you. Your line manager will provide the support you need, especially on helping you find the time for development, as it is all too easy to become completely task focused, especially during the first months. It is therefore crucial, your line manager provides this support and encourages time to reflect and learn from your initial efforts.
