At ING, we pay significant attention to the way we manage our talent. This supports the Company wide effort to develop a Winning performance Culture- a pivotal component of ING's people strategy that allows us to attract, motivate, retain and develop the very best people for continued business growth. Talent management at ING enables the leadership team to look across all employees in the organization and make informed assessments based on three principle areas: past performance, growth potential and ambition. We look at what has been achieved against the pre-agreed individual objectives as well as how the performance is achieved. We use the ING Leadership star as the reference- to measure the "how" of delivering performance. All our Managers in leadership positions are expected to exhibit the five critical leadership behaviors, as per ING Leadership Star.
