Do you look at your current employee’s resumés?

Thinking out-loud: part of being management is the development of your subordinates. So in times of not being worried about lay offs or people jumping ship, is it reasonable as a manager to take the time and develop employees’ resumés, interviewing skills, etc? Can be beneficial to the firm if/when they promote and have to begin filtering applicants themselves. Or is this just grooming people to leave?

No, and I think the employees would be scared this was a soft heads up of an upcoming layoff. Develop your subordinates with interesting/impactful projects that they can really contribute to, as well as chances to present to seniors, lead others, and work in teams. This will be far more helpful than making sure everyone's behaviorals are brushed up all the time.

If a promotion is imminent/needs a resume and interview, sure, you should help with a review. But generally, I think most young professionals have friends/family/colleagues willing to look at their resume or give them a mock interview, it's not a huge gap in most people's development.
