Our people are critical to our continuing commercial success. With more than 38,000 employees working at more than 150 locations around the world, we need HR strategies that can be implemented globally. The first step is to identify the common challenges we face wherever we operate:
- Talent management: identifying, recruiting and retaining the best people and developing career opportunities for them that meet company needs
- Employee-oriented leadership: strengthening the alignment of management and employees by improving communication and enhancing employee feedback systems
- Performance management: instilling a result-driven management culture that supports two-way performance feedback for continuous learning and improvement
- Motivation: providing reward and incentive schemes in a working environment that promotes commitment, engagement and well-being
- Communication: increased transparency and efficiency in all our communications.
Rising to these challenges can enhance the adidas Group's business success.
