For me, support is when my manager provides timely actionable feedback that I can grow professionally and personally. In addition, bringing me along to projects that I want to learn and grow in.

I think a good support structure starts with people managers. A company could have a phenomenal l&d framework, etc. However if a manger isn’t effectively implementing those resources and isn’t a good people manager than the resources will ultimately be useless. A good step would be to assess an individuals people manager skills prior to giving them direct reports. Rather than immediately elevating top performers into management.
