People Development System
People Development System (PDS) is our process for performance and employee development. The investment in this integrated system is focused directly on you and your career, and will ensure that your actions are directly aligned to the goals of the business.
With your manager, you will set goals for the coming year and discuss your future career ambitions. At least twice a year, you will meet with your manager to discuss your performance and development. During the year, you will receive ongoing coaching and feedback.
Our competency model is an integral part of the People Development System. Competencies are the skills, knowledge and abilities required for success at Legrand. Every employee at all levels is held accountable for strengthening their performance to these competencies.
Learning
Legrand supports learning in several ways. We offer internal classes through our Legrand University and have identified external sources of training to support your development. We offer a generous tuition reimbursement program. At Legrand, we believe that the best learning is through challenging assignments, learning on the job. Your manager will help support your development through identification of roles and assignments that will help build your capabilities.
