<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCEO Alberto Calderon is spearheading this culture and values transformation journey, which started with an organisational culture assessment that was conducted in collaboration with Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute. Chapman & Co. used the Barrett Culture Model to survey our employees\u2019 experiences, perceptions and ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over 80% of our employees across all levels and jurisdictions participated in the survey. For us, this was a clear indication that they were eager to have their say in the future direction of our company culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The survey\u2019s results indicated that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Most employees have a grounded and well-rounded set of values<\/li>
- There is a satisfactory match between our current culture and our desired culture<\/li>
- Employees are committed to safety and health, accountability, and continuous learning and improvement<\/li>
- While employees have experienced significant transformation and change, they are willing to continue to evolve and grow<\/li>
- There is a willingness to embrace a culture characterised by greater employee engagement, recognition, leadership, professional growth and open communication<\/li>
- Employees desire greater accountability. We aim to address this through our new Operating Model. It has accountability as a cornerstone, streamlining the organisation and presenting clear channels of communication and accountability.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The executive and senior leadership teams have started the next steps of the journey. They are currently internalising the survey results, communicating the current and desired culture and values to their broader teams, and identifying short, medium, and long-term action plans to address areas of concern. The ultimate goal is to lay the foundations necessary to build an inspiring culture that lives up to AngloGold Ashanti\u2019s commitment to building a better world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
