mBank’s training system

Our philosophy of employee development and appraisal.

We take a broad view of employee development, which is not limited to organisation’s needs, but also includes personal hobbies of our personnel. Our employees may decide themselves about development planning to a large extent. The manager’s role is to support employees in development planning, inspire and create new development opportunities, also by selecting appropriate tasks and guaranteeing access to various experience.

The training and development activities at mBank Group combine both formal and informal learning. We focus on learning through gaining experience and getting feedback on an ongoing basis.

We provide employees with various tools allowing for unlimited m-learning opportunities – more in Mobile development tools. Furthermore, we make sure that they improve and update their knowledge about banking regulations. For this purpose, we organise training and meetings aiming at knowledge transfer, webinars or e-learning.

The development of employees is also supported by elements of the incentive system, such as employee appraisal, focus on work-life balance, mobile workplace or employee volunteering programme. More about the mBank’s incentive system – how do we motivate our employees?

Our activities concerning human resource management and employer branding received numerous awards in 2017. These include, but are not limited to: Top Employers, Best Quality Employer, I love my Job, Power of Attracting Employees (Siła Przyciągania) – a competition organized by Puls Biznesu daily (we received the main prize for the Banking Talents campaign) – EB Stars and EB Creator.

Our training

Training courses and other development activities in mBank Group are adjusted to the needs of our employees and to the current strategy of the employer. In 2017 these included, i.a., the following:

  • The “Manager’s Function in the New Strategy” development programme, addressed to all managers from the group and based on two modules that correspond with the two pillars of the new strategy – empathy and effectiveness.
In 2017, 100 managers from various areas of mBank participated in workshops aimed at practicing active listening. It is an element of creating a corporate culture based on empathy.

Log in to the development. How do we encourage our employees to participate in training?

In LearningZone, available in the Intranet to all employees, one may find information about development programmes that are currently being implemented. Via LearningZone, one may enrol on a training course or participate in e-learning. Our employees receive information about development activities also via a standard communication channel, e.g. e-mail.

We carry out various bank-wide campaigns promoting employee development. These include the following:

  • “Log in to Development”– a website used to inform employees about development tools available at the bank; via this website we suggest how to use these tools and recommend interesting articles.
  • “Let’s Talk about Development” – a programme geared to support managers in holding conversations with employees regarding their development and planning it.
  • “Our People Make the Difference”– a programme created to distinguish employees that are particularly engaged in work and implementation of mBank’s values, those who are outstanding managers or innovators.
  • “Development Days” – is an activity taking place simultaneously in the entire organisation on a regular basis. During the Development Days, we present our employees with development opportunities available at mBank and encourage them to take advantage of these opportunities.

Mobile development tools

We strongly support mobile development of employees. Mobile development tools offered by mBank to its employees include, among others, the following:

  • LinkedIN Learning. A tool available to all the employees; it gives access to a database of more than 10 thousand courses. These courses are dedicated to both soft and hard skills, as well as to extended development paths based on recommendations of experienced business representatives.

How do we identify training needs?

We carry out Performance Needs Analysis (Badanie Potrzeb Efektywnościowych). The analysis makes it possible to find out about development needs on an ongoing basis – from the point of view of organisational units, particular employees and mBank as a whole.

It covers members of the management board, directors of organisational units, and the middle and lower-level management. On the basis of its results, we develop the plans of increased effectiveness as regards development and training for particular areas of operations and organisational units.

How do we check training effectiveness?

  • summary reports drawn up by training companies, including their conclusions and findings;
  • meeting summarising a training course (a talk of the trainer with an employee of the HR unit and a competent manager);
  • an evaluation survey;
  • direct meetings of an HR unit employee with training participants;
  • work or homework to be done by training participants and assessed by the trainer or the manager;
  • post-training activity plan for participants;
  • arrangements between the training participant and the manager or the HR unit employee concerning post-training implementation of ideas;
  • knowledge sharing by participants.
