Elisa Nardi, Chief People Officer at Virgin Media has been talking to Personnel Today about how The Thinking Partnership's character-driven leadership development work is being embedded to help attract and retain top talent.
From Personneltoday.com:
"The very best leaders need to work in a place where they can express themselves and use their skills and character strengths to their fullest potential. This is taking development to a unique and individual level that tries to understand and make the best of you as the person you are.
It's not trying to shoehorn you into being x, y or z. It's about recognising where you've got significant strengths and utilise in a collective. It's not pigeon holing but nurturing and cherishing their individuality, whilst clearly aligning them strategically to where we want to go as a business."
