Employees
Demands on employees have changed radically in
recent years. Not only the internal structural change,
but also the change in conditions on the human
resources and employment market caused by demographic
change demand a continual adjustment of
people’s qualifications. The Bank must take adequate
measures to cope with this.
The Bank offers its employees and its managers var-
ious opportunities for targeted training. Among others,
these include an in-depth training for bankers
and students on the Banking and Information Technology
degree course as well as various training
programmes for graduates. There is also a large
number of measures to develop personality and
methodological competence as well as to improve
employees’ technical and marketing skills.
Employees and managers are supported in their cur-
rent areas of responsibility or systematically prepared
to assume new functions in targeted, centrally
managed development and qualification programmes.
The Landesbank is continuing to expand its health
management continuously to maintain the health
and effectiveness of its employees. To this end, various
measures to promote health and increase effectiveness
were introduced on the basis of the findings
of an employee survey. A further study on the issue
of health will follow in 2011.
The management feedback will also be repeated. In
an anonymous process, employees assess their
managers and thus offer them the opportunity to
pick up suggestions on further improving their leadership
and improving teamwork in the team.
Additional training programmes are being designed
and implemented for technical specialists. The programmes
are aimed at boosting the motivation and
satisfaction of employees and guaranteeing the high
quality of their work.
Landesbank Berlin attaches an unvarying and substantial
degree of importance to the development of
junior staff and will continue its commitment to training
opportunities in the Bank unchanged.
A new mentoring programme for women will also
start. The aim of the programme is to support
female employees with potential in preparing for
management and specialist positions and to encourage
the exchange of experience and transfer of
knowledge across hierarchical levels.
The Board of Management explicitly thanks all
employees and their representatives in the name of
the Bank. Without their dedication and their commitment
it would have been impossible to keep to tight
schedules in strategic projects and to master the
multifaceted tasks involved.
