职业发展是什么意思在Covance——以及如何can you expect to navigate career moves within our global organization? Five inspirational people recently shared their perspectives on what career growth means to them at Covance and how they’re helping evolve the way we develop our people and their careers.
倾听和回应我们员工的需求
Last year, feedback from an employee survey indicated that our people want more visible opportunities to grow their careers within our company.
“我们的团队成员希望更好地了解他们可用的机会范围，”Heidi Sturgeon，VP，HR合作CTTS＆ED解释说。“根据这一反馈，我们探讨了提高我们组织内职业道路的概况的解决方案。”
“我们雇用的近25％来自内部，我们知道人们希望加入并留在一家将增长其技能和促进其专业愿望的公司，”她补充道。“这就是为什么我们提出了内部增长和移动机会的优先事项。”
Making it easy to take control of your career
“Covance offers many resources, both formal and informal, to enable career growth but also emphasizes the importance of taking control of your career,” said Sara Pieper, Director of Global Employer Brand Marketing.
“Navigating a large organization and understanding how your skills transfer across businesses can be challenging. That’s why we recently launched SuccessPath, a unique AI-powered internal talent marketplace that matches Covance team members with career opportunities based on their skills and experiences. SuccessPath will help our colleagues stay up to date on open roles available and highlight career paths that may have otherwise not been considered. Whether or not our team members are seeking a new career, we highly encourage them to sign up to see their potential matches within our organization and even refer connections from their professional network to join us.”
Investing in our culture
人力资源，人力资源副总裁Vicki Neddenriep对展示了Covance提供的传统和独特的职业道路充满热情。Vicki认为，赋予同事在新的挑战作业上设定了他们的景点，这对他们的专业成长和职业成功至关重要。
“New investments in tools like SuccessPath will enable our team members to stay more connected to Covance career opportunities by allowing them to set up personal career profiles to ensure an individualized experience,” she said. “True professional growth comes when we make the first move to manage our own career journeys. In addition to using Covance’s new SuccessPath platform, I encourage all colleagues to proactively share career aspirations with their managers, volunteer for special projects, expand professional networks, and reach out to mentors who can help them see new development options. ”
“I want our people to be proactive and take advantage of the many opportunities to expand their expertise, move to new areas and apply their experience to other businesses across the enterprise. To me, that’s what internal mobility is all about.”
利用职业建设资源
Eli Miller, Nonclinical Data Associate II, joined Covance just over a year ago and has already seen how his early career has developed as he has built his network and recently earned his first promotion.
“我刚刚毕业于经济学 - 数学学位，我不知道我的技能如何在CRO上使用，但我发现工作是非常吸引力和挑战的工作，”他说。“我已经得到了我的主管支持，并在一些所有的一切，如数据建模，监管工作和标准化，这让我很高兴地增长了。”
“我也发现了一个导师并扩大了我的专业网络。有一天，我与自助餐厅的几个人有关，我们决定形成一个升降chapter of the employee resource group that empowers young professionals. This experience has been really great. I like that Covance gives you the opportunity to be able to make your own opportunity.”
Seeking out new challenges
“In 1998, I was referred to join Covance by a friend of a friend. She spoke so highly of the organization and all it had to offer,” said Kristine Dehler, Executive Director of Business Development.
“At the time, I had a job at the National Institute of Health but was looking for a career move. I thought that joining a larger organization like Covance would provide me with opportunities for growth – and I was right.”
“在迎接更大的挑战并追求了几年的增长机会后，我想进入销售。当一个职位打开时，我去了招聘经理并说，'我想要那个位置。I don’t have the experience, but know I can do this.’ Today, I’m still part of the sales team, and having been a part of the company of a long time, I can see how we have a strong advantage with our people. I believe we have the best people in every part of this organization. I’m just one example of how our culture enables success: you can get yourself anywhere here if you are willing to put in the work.”
