Because of the personal service nature of the marketing and communications business, our talent is of significance to our success. Human capital management strategies are developed by senior management, including the management teams of our Brands, and are overseen at the corporate level.

Our human capital management priorities include providing competitive benefits & compensation, attracting and retaining talent, supporting learning & development across the network, promoting diversity, increasing employee engagement, and ensuring workplace safety. At the corporate level, centralized human capital management processes include the development of human resources governance and policy, executive compensation for senior leaders, benefits programs, and succession planning focusing on the performance, development and retention of key senior executives.
