Do you know what type of services Aon Krakow business departments provide? With Aon IQ series you will discover how our teams work and what value they bring to Aon United culture. Monika Mirowska-Kopec and her Retirement Solutions Business Unit opened the Aon IQ series in Q2. Now, I have a pleasure to welcome you to our department – HR Global Operations.
Let me start with my personal experience
What struck me 5 years ago when I joined Aon was definitely our unique culture that required a shift in the way I used to work before and, frankly, I do like this change.
Firstly, our strong focus on cross teams' cooperation (Aon United) has a very practical implication - networking, collaboration is highly valued here, because no individual is as effective as a diverse team. What I appreciate specifically in HR Global Operations team is our consultative management approach - we do discuss, agree and calibrate each important decision within the management team and frequently also with colleagues' Committees to come up with the best approach.
Secondly, Activity Based Working model required me to change my working style completely: from the assigned room and desk to a new seat and companion discovered every day, from tons of paper and notes to a light, google-searchable OneNote.
Thirdly, I have never seen a company with such a clear growth strategy, focused on future market trends and customers' needs resulting in dozens of acquisitions and divestitures per year. Change is embedded in Aon's DNA, helping all of us stretch our flexibility and openness muscles.
