EMPLOYEES AND THE WORKPLACE
47
the first half of 2019 Jotun conducted a Boost campaign
engaging with the Group’s 1 700 managers – helping increase
understanding of Jotun’s business strategy and how to enable it
throughout individual companies and departments.
Based around half or one-day workshops and delivered by
internal trainers, the campaign featured specially shot videos
with Group management explaining strategies ‘face-to-face’,
alongside lively discussion and exercises. Attendees were
then charged with communicating learnings to their own
local workforces.
94 per cent of all managers completed the initiative, with
over 90 per cent providing feedback that it had clarified
understanding of Jotun strategy.
Other key 2019 developments include:
• New IT and Project Management Academies
• Revamped Marketing Academy
• Management Academy improvements – less training days,
more internal trainers, more pre and post leaning, reduced cost
• Increased use of video – 80 videos produced and delivered
this year
