Learning and continuing education largely take place in the workplace: Typically, a person learns 70% through their own practical experience in everyday work, and 20% through his or her professional environment, such as supervisors, mentors, or colleagues. Only 10% of learning takes place in the traditional way through continuing education. This is why it is very important to us to create a culture of curiosity, trial and error, and exchange in our day-to-day work. Zurich Switzerland therefore encourages, among other things, project collaboration, rotations and internal job changes, even between divisions. All employees are regularly asked to reflect on their current situation and shape their individual development. In addition, we offer a wide range of courses, seminars and eLearnings, run internal professional academies and cooperate with various external training institutions. About every two months, experts from various business units report on current developments in the Strategy Sharing Session, thus making corporate strategy tangible for employees.
