Lifelong Learning & Development

One of Wrigley's Core Values is our commitment to the pursuit of lifelong learning and personal development. To that end, we refer to our Human Resources function as People, Learning and Development (PLD) to emphasise that our programs are about more than compensation and benefits – they are also about helping associates stretch, grow and reach their full potential.

Lifelong Learning & Career Development

GOLDGOLD

GOLD (Goals, Outcomes, Leadership and Development) is Wrigley's performance management program. While traditional goal setting and annual planning are a part of this program, it goes much further. The entire process reinforces the importance of our values and the tenets of our Leadership Model, while encouraging individuals to stretch, grow and reach their full potential.

Aspiring and RealisingAspiring and Realising

"Realise your aspirations!" – Aspiring & Realising is Wrigley’s career development and talent management program. The program provides our associates with the opportunity to spend focused time with their managers to discuss their career aspirations, how to leverage their strengths and create development plans aligned to their career goals. Incorporating annual Talent Reviews, Wrigley is able to proactively match associate aspirations and capabilities to business needs, identify talent and develop our future leaders.

GOLDCoaching the Wrigley Way

Understanding the role that managers play in developing our people, Wrigley asks all managers to devote more of their time to people development. Wrigley formalised a global program to support managers in these discussions - that program is called Coaching the Wrigley Way.

Aspiring and RealisingOther Leadership Programs

These are just some of the programs available to support our associate's ongoing career development. Supporting our associates in their personal and professional development is an essential part of our makeup at Wrigley. We dedicate resources to ensuring that our associates have access to programs, training and tools that help them advance in their chosen career function and aspiration.

For advanced training Wrigley has other leadership and development programs such as Leadership Academy, Marketing College and G.M. Academy open to associates in selected roles by invitation.
