Our Talent principles

  • Everyone is talent and development opportunities are inclusive
  • Leaders and colleagues jointly own the talent conversation and agree development actions
  • Potential can be assessed via 3 strength focused factors:
    1. Develop – Ability to perform even better in current role
    2. Stretch – Ability to take on more responsibility in current role
    3. Move – Ability to take on the next level of leadership
  • Rigorous succession planning with regular performance conversations drive people development and create transparency
  • Visible talent and succession activity supports self-directed development
