Talent development programme
A next step in learning and development
A talent development programme that focuses on future potential by concentrating on personal leadership, cooperation and the business of Van den Bosch. That's what this talent development programme is all about. “For employees who have the talent and ambition to go further,” says Michiel van Kessel, Director of Staff Services.
The talent development programme came about through cooperation between Van den Bosch and Younited, a company specialised in professional coaching. Van Kessel: “We decided that the programme had to suit us perfectly, reflecting all that we stand for. Not only our business, but also, for example, our core values.” According to Van Kessel, it was a logical choice to work with Younited on this programme. “We've been working together for over five years. It started with coaching for the managers and team leaders. The fact that we are now preparing our talents for the future together with them brings us full circle.”
Business case
In the course of the programme, a business case is worked on, among other things. “This makes it a real Van den Bosch programme,” says Van Kessel. A strategic issue is used in which Pirke van den Elsen, Chief Digital Officer at Van den Bosch, acts as the client. Van Kessel: “This runs like a common thread through the programme, and everything that is learned can be applied to it. Such as cooperation. It’s not always easy, can be exciting or difficult, but that’s exactly what makes it great. The programme holds up a mirror and helps you get to know yourself. You can then put that knowledge to good use.”
