EXECUTIVE BIO

Citizen-led The ‘ citizen-led ’ approach is based around giving employees the time and space to learn , grow and invest in their own interests . The project , now running for over two years , has spurred digital ‘ champions ’ to create their own dashboards or bots and automate e . g . parts of SAP implementations .
“ We have set up a new training approach called Your Tomorrow so our young colleagues can understand how to work with e . g . emerging technologies , analytics software and how to work more agile . We also identified a Digital Accelerator programme where they have extra time each week to understand , learn and build products , assets or automations and share them . And drive our digital agenda forward in their business teams , also from a mindset point of view .
