Career Development
We approach your development through a combination of Education (classroom or shop-floor modules), Experience (learning from colleagues in live-work environments) and Exposure (to new technologies, processes and ways of thinking).
Our education efforts are particularly focused on technical training as it is crucial that our workforce is the most technically accomplished in the industry. In addition to formal learning settings, we believe that it is essential to exploit development opportunities where they happen – within the work process. Therefore, we have a strong focus on learning through collaboration, which often is shaped as practical on-the-job development activities.
We always look to the future, so your development includes not only practical training essential for fulfilling your own role, but also the more strategic skills necessary for operating as part of a truly global company.
Around the world, we provide development and learning opportunities designed to channel talented colleagues through each of our three equally-weighted career tracks: People & Business leadership (for people managers), Knowledge & Innovation leadership (for technical or business experts), and Project Leadership (for project managers).
