Newmont helps employees grow and develop skills so their careers at Newmont can be lifelong opportunities. We encourage all employees to share career aspirations, identify key strengths and develop an action plan to achieve goals. Newmont also offers opportunities for international assignments and travel, providing the chance to learn and develop a well-balanced global business perspective.
Successful Planning
Our capability to grow depends on our leaders. As generations of leaders retire, we need new minds and hearts to guide Newmont, and we hope to find that leadership talent from within. Succession planning is the process of identifying the right employees to fill the right jobs at the right time, and it enables Newmont to sustain a pipeline of talent. Developing successors involves accelerating the readiness of key people through focused and aggressive development within their function as well as across other business functions.
Leadership Pipeline
Our Newmont Leadership Pipeline supports the establishment of a high-performance business environment where employee development and business results are clearly aligned. Through this framework, we set performance expectations and ensure the right work is completed at the right level. To drive innovation, Newmont also offers a Technical Sciences Path, applied to select roles within the areas of engineering, geosciences, metallurgy and environmental sciences.
Training and Development
Newmont stays ahead of competition and drives innovation by providing employees with the knowledge and skills to succeed. We invest in creating, facilitating and sponsoring a variety of development opportunities for our work force. This can include coaching, mentoring and formal training - classroom and on-the-job training are used in combination to provide the most effective learning experiences.
We offer specialized training in such areas as mine rescue, mine engineering, handling hazardous materials and environmental management to equip those working in these fields to protect human health and the environment.
Performance Management
Our performance management processes assess team and individual performance at all levels, ensuring achievement of business goals and objectives. All of our employees and managers work together to define key performance goals each year, monitor and track performance against business, team and individual goals throughout the year, and formally review performance at midyear and year-end.
