Today, we want to shed some light on a topic that may not be at the top of everyone's minds but is definitely worth a closer look. Yes, you guessed it – we're talking about teaching our employees. Now, before you scroll away, let us assure you that this isn't going to be a lecture-filled blog post. We promise to keep it engaging and informative, with just the right mix of facts and a touch of personality. So, let's dive in!

 

Why do we make it a priority to teach our employees? Well, it all boils down to the belief that lifelong learning is the secret sauce to success. In today's fast-paced and ever-changing world, learning is more crucial than ever. As a company, our purpose is to create room for development – not just for the company as a whole, but for each individual on our team.

 

Our goal is simple: Learn, Connect, Develop & Enable.

 

We strive to cultivate a culture of curiosity, where both personal and professional growth are encouraged. We firmly believe that a self-responsible learning mindset is the best way to retain knowledge and stay ahead of the game.

 

Now, you might be wondering who this teaching is intended for. The answer is simple – every single employee. We firmly believe that everyone has the ability and responsibility to develop themselves. Whether you're a fresh recruit or a seasoned veteran, there's always room to learn, grow, and expand your horizons.

 

So, what exactly do we do to facilitate this learning journey? Well, we have a range of programs and initiatives in place. Let's take a look at some of them:

 

  • Re-Upskilling: We constantly evaluate the skills needed in the ever-evolving business landscape and provide opportunities for our employees to upskill accordingly.
  • Digital Learning: We embrace technology and offer a variety of digital learning options, including blended learning and online courses, so that our employees can learn at their own pace.
  • Presence Learning: We understand the importance of face-to-face interaction, and we organize events and workshops to facilitate learning in a physical setting.
  • Digital PowerDays: This is a unique learning path designed for all of our product groups. It combines peer learning, online courses, and coaching to create a comprehensive learning experience.
  • WElearn: We have our very own learning ecosystem, a learning platform where employees can access a wide range of resources, courses, and learning materials.
  • Learning on the Job: We believe that real-world experience is invaluable, so we encourage our employees to learn and grow through hands-on experience.
  • Mentoring: We pair up experienced employees with those who are eager to learn, fostering a mentor-mentee relationship that benefits both parties.
  • Lunch & Learn: Who said learning can't be delicious? Our Lunch & Learn sessions allow employees to enjoy a tasty meal while soaking up new knowledge.
  • Shadowing: Sometimes, the best way to learn is by observing. We offer shadowing opportunities, where employees can learn directly from experts in their field.
  • Development Programs: We have specialized programs tailored for experts, tech lead, and team lead roles. These programs focus not just on technical skills but also on cultivating the right attitude because, as they say, attitude eats tools for breakfast.
  • International Leadership Program: For those looking to take on leadership roles, we have a program dedicated to developing international leaders who can thrive in a global business landscape.
  • Leading by Accompanying Program: We believe in leading by example. Our Leading by Accompanying Program allows employees to learn from leaders in a close and personal setting.
  • Creating Together Program: Last but not least, we have the Creating Together Program – a basic program that fosters collaboration and teamwork among employees.
     

So, there you have it – a glimpse into why and how we prioritize teaching our employees. It's all about creating a culture of continuous learning and personal development. While it may not be essential for all companies, we firmly believe that it's an intriguing and useful approach that sets us apart.

Remember, learning is the key to success in this ever-changing world, and by investing in our employees' growth, we're investing in the future of our company. So, let's keep those minds curious, let's keep learning, and let's unlock the doors to success together!
