Our people philosophy is anchored in the concept of having the right people, in the right place, at the right time.
The Right People - living the brand• We aim at getting our brand behind our people rather than getting our people behind our brand
• Our human capital model is deeply anchored in our Core Values. It is tailored towards identifying and fostering people who have a natural affinity with our organization’s brand values, vision and mission; people who aspire to leave their imprint on the Barilla of the future.
The Right Time - situational fit• We select future employees and appoint internal talent based on their “fitness”
– for a specific job, but also
– for our company’s future
• Understanding an individual’s values, motivations, leadership & operating styles, as well as emotional competencies are key to our selection and appointment processes
The Right Place - individual & organizational growth• We recognize job requirements and individual aspirations change over time
• We believe that leadership requirements evolve with each managerial career passage
• We make sure our leaders are ready to lead us into a challenging future
Developing and retaining talent• To us talent is a shared common good belonging to the company as a whole
• Offering and ensuring career development opportunities is one of our key accountabilities as an organization
• Managing and developing talent is a key accountability of our leaders
• Each talent is accountable for their own development, with support from line management and human capital
