At Boyum IT we are dedicated to the continuous professional growth of every team member. We believe that our greatest asset is our people, and our commitment to their development has high priority. Our approach to employee development is built on the foundation of accessibility and strategic planning, ensuring that everyone has access to learning and development.
One of our four core values in our company culture is excellence, which aligns perfectly with our focus on employee development. We strive for excellence in everything we do.
Personal Development Plans: Mapping the development journey
Every year, each employee collaborates with their direct manager to create a Personal Development Plan (PDP). The PDP is a strategic tool designed to set the course for the growth and development within Boyum IT. It’s like a car’s GPS—it can only guide you to the best route if it knows where you are. The first step of any PDP is to establish the current position, allowing to chart a clear and effective path to individual goals.
The PDP process is more than a formality; it’s a personalized approach to understanding the “whys” and “how’s” of the journey within our company. By setting goals, we ensure that every employee is equipped with an understanding of their development path, aligning their personal aspirations with our organizational goals.
Career Framework: The roadmap to professional advancement
To support our commitment to professional growth, we have implemented two key initiatives: our Career Framework and Leadership Pipeline.
The Career Framework serves as a comprehensive roadmap for the professional journey within our company. It provides a clear understanding of the various pathways for growth and advancement, helping everyone to identify opportunities that align with the career aspirations.
Leadership Pipeline: Cultivating leaders at every level
In addition to the Career Framework, we collaborated with an external agency to develop our Leadership Pipeline. This initiative is designed to identify, develop, and promote leaders at all levels of Boyum IT. It sets common standards for performance and potential, tailored to each management layer, ensuring a consistent and structured approach to leadership development.
The goal of a leadership pipeline is to ensure that Boyum IT has a steady stream of leaders with the skills, knowledge and experience needed to meet the challenges of the future.
