Development plans

Every employee has a personal growth plan from the start. Most of EBN's employees wrote a (new) long-term personal development plan. The aim of the development plan is twofold:

• Personal – structured thoughts on their own development and on the business

• To create a good basis from which to fill key positions.

The personal development plan spans three to four years and is reviewed annually.
