Successful advancement
To grow in an organization, performance is key. However, successful career development is not only reflected in a series of vertical promotions. Managing your career means putting your skills to work in the right place. That could mean a specific discipline or industry or a particularly respected organization. At Abbott, researchers and managers alike receive support to achieve their career aims. A good idea of your goals and the right activity at the right point in time will be key to your success in our company. We are always available to assist you with your career management!
Agreed goals
Career development at Abbott is transparent: employees and their supervisors define up to eight goals for the next business year in our Performance Excellence Process. These are financial, individual, and economic objectives. Performance reviews are conducted on a regular basis and linked to growth planning in order to identify training and development needs, maximizing employees’ potential.
Diversity of support
We value your personal and professional development. Therefore, we offer our staff goal-oriented training and development programs based upon individual growth plans. Depending on the subject matter, courses are conducted by external trainers or internal experts. Last year, we hosted more than 7,000 training sessions.
