To supplement the on-the-job development obtained within
the individual companies and the training provided by the
Product Groups, Oldcastle sponsors enterprise-wide Leadership
Development Programs.
Participants are nominated annually by the leaders of
the Oldcastle Product Groups.
Management
Development Program (MDP)
MDP is an action learning program where each participant
will be challenged and equipped to think strategically about
their own business. This is a weeklong program designed for
new managers or individuals with less than 5 years managerial
experience from across the Oldcastle federation of companies.
The participants will come away with a greater understanding
of the manager's job, broaden their perspective of the total
business, and help them acquire a range of management and
leadership skills to drive business performance.
Strategic
Management Program (SMP)
SMP is designed to motivate participants by providing an
enjoyable, energizing, high quality personal development
experience. The participants will develop the core management
skills in key areas of business strategy and organizational
development. This weeklong program is based in Ireland with
experienced managers from across the globe and provides managers
an opportunity to share experiences and learn from each other,
to meet key members of the senior management team and to
develop a better knowledge and understanding of the CRH family
worldwide.
Business
Leadership Program (BLP)
BLP is differentiated from other leadership programs, with
a primary focus on Personal Development Plans created by
each participant. This intense 12 month program is designed
to accelerate the growth and readiness of senior managers
for future opportunities. The program is comprised of four
modules to include assessments, executive coaching, and mentoring:
- Module 1 - Myself as a Leader
