Helping Merck Group Build Future Leaders

Leadership is the cornerstone of any organization’s success, contributing up to 80% of business performance. For sustainable growth, it's crucial to ensure that the right talent fills key leadership positions. Identifying and nurturing future leaders is therefore a strategic priority!

With this goal in mind, Merck Group—a global leader in science and technology—partnered with Jombay to scientifically assess their senior talent, uncover key growth areas, and identify future leaders.

Here’s how we did it:

> Focused on relevant and critical themes - The Development Center was aligned with key leadership behaviours crucial for success at Merck Group. These included Care, Pioneer and Outperform.

> Integrated Assessment Experience - We deployed a mix of personality assessments, case studies, and an assessor-led Behavioral Event Interview to ensure that the experience was scientifically valid & immersive!

> Informed Decision Making - Comprehensive reports were provided to give deep insights into identified areas of development & highlighted the potential of the participants on next-level readiness.

The result?

The development center provided Merck Group with actionable insights, enabling them to make informed decisions on succession planning and talent development for the future.
