We are reliant on the culture of our business and the engagement of our colleagues to achieve our ambition. During FY21, we ran listening groups to inform a new set of Group values, relevant for the current strategy. These new values are the fundamental beliefs that underpin everything we do and have been incorporated into Group training, review and reward mechanisms.
Monitoring Culture
The Board plays an active role in monitoring the culture of the business through its regular facilitation of listening groups and site visits. The Board reviews the results of the annual colleague engagement survey and sets engagement targets for Executive Directors and Executive Committee members. The outputs of listening groups and associated action plans are reviewed by the Board and key actions are incorporated into functional engagement plans.
