That process not only assesses the quality of leadership within all business units and functions but also identifies the potential leaders of tomorrow.
The focus of our internal training and skills development programs is the Joban Development Centre. It has facilitated and encouraged people to acquire new skills, take on new challenges, exchange ideas, and share best practices.
