Two days of collaborative work on the One Group approach. Held at the end of May and coordinated by the Airport Network Monitoring Centre (DGOM) and the HR Transformation and Training Support Units, this initiative brought together ten employees from the international business networks: technical, operations, security, airside and information systems. This training course, which consists of leading discussions by mobilising collective intelligence, is an opportunity to play an active role in the transformation of Groupe ADP’s international culture. "The aim is to professionalise and harmonise our practices to facilitate international working groups and seminars”, explains Nathalie Vairel, DGOM Director. “We need tools, but we also need know-how and interpersonal skills to drive the roll-out of the operational excellence model within the Group.” This training will be applied on 12 and 13 June at the One Group “Data & Operations” seminar at Paris-Charles de Gaulle.
