Initially qualified as an Industrial Chemi st much of his early experience was in operational roles focusing on manuf acturing\, engineering and facility start-up. In the past 10 years he has held various senior roles in Ireland\, America and Switzerland in a range of functions including Global Strategy\, Engineering\, Product Launch\, Hu man Resources and Organisational Development.\n\nOver the past 3 years Ger ry has led the closure of the Roche site to achieve the  mission of “Ex iting with Pride and People being prepared for their future”. This progr am was very successful in supporting employees to gain new employment whil st also delivering best in class business results. This was reflected in t he Roche site achieving 3 national awards for excellence in business impr ovements and developing a learning culture.\n\nThe World of Work is changi ng at ever increasing speeds presenting a huge challenge to both organisat ions and employees to develop the skills that are needed in the future.\n\ nAt Roche Ireland in 2016 the site was very efficient and focused on the d ay to day job of manufacturing high quality pharmaceuticals\; the site was proudly ranked in the 1st quartile of Pharma sites. However\, it was also recognised that the site was not preparing for future changes which was f urther compounded with the closure announcement for the site.\n\nThe prese ntation today is a summary of the journey taken by Roche Ireland and its p eople to develop a Learning Organisation and have people Future Ready for when they would leave Roche. The approach taken in Ireland is now the benc hmark for other Roche sites embarking on developing a real learning cultur e. This approach can be applied to all organisations as it focuses on peop le and the principles and behavioural changes needed to move from a busy o rganisation to one that focuses on future needs.\n\n \;\nThis webinar is Free of Charge\, but online booking is essential.\nWe will share the li nk to join webinar a day before the event. \nShannon Chamber Skillnet is co-funded by Skillnet Ireland and member companies.
