Learning and Development as a Catalyst for Change at Clarivate

SOURCE: Clarivate

DESCRIPTION:

“Behind every successful organization is always a dedicated, skilled team of colleagues who work together for the benefit of the company. At Clarivate, our internal learning and development programs are an essential way to support our colleague development, elevate their skills and help propel our organization to be successful and future-proof.”

Marguerite Harris, Head of Talent and Development

Our learning and development (L&D) philosophy is about bringing our organizational beliefs and values to life – to map our actions and behaviors to our words. It’s about empowering each colleague to be their best self every day and providing a wide range of skills development opportunities applicable now and for the future. Some guiding principles include:

• We develop our L&D plans and programs in alignment with our key business functions to help further our mutual success and avoid creating silos.
• Our L&D commitments are performance related and designed to improve corporate, functional, team and individual accountability.
• We strongly believe that every colleague across our entire business should be provided equal opportunities to learn, develop and grow.
• We believe in empowering individual colleagues with their own L&D milestones. With ownership comes commitment, responsibility and greater chances of success for ongoing learning and development.
• We continuously focus on outcomes and business impact when it comes to evaluating L&D programs. We always ask the question, “How will you apply what you have learned to your day-to-day job?”
