Especially in the medical products industry, competent employees are the basis of every success. That is why we support our employees with targeted qualification and development opportunities. Career Development' is about the early identification and targeted development of internal (management) potential and thus the priority filling of vacant positions from within our own ranks.
The Pros Programme' offers potential candidates from various divisions and locations the greatest possible visibility and networking within the company as well as opportunities for professional and personal development. The global development program extends over 18 months and invites participants to develop themselves through individual mentoring and coaching, selected seminar and training modules, and active involvement in company-relevant projects.
In the annual appraisal interview or management dialogue between the manager and the employee, there is a structured and open exchange about the achievement of goals in the past year and areas for development. New goals are also set.
Our managers bear a special responsibility for the success of our company. They are role models and guiding figures. Therefore, their targeted promotion and further development are an important building block for us. Whether proven for years or completely new in the leadership function, the focus is on the individual role as a leader and the refinement of soft skills and leadership methods. Our worldwide 'Rodenstock Leadership Programme' for selected managers in the company combines the topics 'leadership', 'corporate culture' and 'strategy'. It aims at a strong leadership team with clarity, ambition and passion, responsibility and appreciation. You may soon be one of the global leaders who will learn in the programme what strategy and cultural change can mean for themselves, their teams and their daily business.
