In a high-growth business, there is always an increasing need for capable managers. At Artelia, most managers are recruited internally. This way, managers are already part of the company culture. But how can you accelerate the development of managers to match an increasing need? Artelia Management Talents is the answer.
Nina Wellendorff Marquardsen is of the talents who has participated in the accelerated training programme that focuses on individual developmental needs. Over a period of 16 months, she has participated in courses and individual coaching and mentoring sessions.
Self-insight is developing Nina reports, that participation in the training programme has given her a deeper insight into Artelia as an organisation and business, but most importantly: a far greater self-awareness.
“I have been given many opportunities to try new things in cooperation with my mentor. I have learned a lot about myself and I have tested out different possibilities within the projects. It is a great privilege to be offered such training. Having someone that believes in you gives you strength and confidence,” says Nina.
Nina is an architect who works as a client consultant on large and complex projects, with many stakeholders. The management talent programme has made Nina more self-aware:
“One day I am an internal project manager, the next day I am advising my client, and on the third day I am sitting in complex management situations. You think you need to get to know others – and you do – but the most important thing is to know yourself. That way you will be less occupied dealing with your own issues, thus concentrating more on your projects.”
Many career opportunities The management talent programme develops the participants’ competencies within the career paths of Project Management and Business Management. Nina has tried several different job functions to become more aware of her strengths and desires for her future career.
“Some days, I would like to become an excellent client consultant, and other days I would like to work with how I can develop the business and the processes. It’s still too early to tell where I will end up,” Nina concludes.
