XANO Academy is the Group’s internal training arena. The purpose of the academy is to strengthen and profile XANO as an employer, to invest in employees, to facilitate a platform for internal networks, to achieve increased competitive advantages and to create a forum for the communication and implementation of XANO’s core values. 

The development programmes normally run for twelve months and are divided into a number of two-day modules, the content of which is adapted according to the target group’s structure and skills requirements. 

Development and network building


The activities within our Academy are intended to strengthen XANO as an employer by maintaining a high skills level among our employees. We want to make use of the commitment and innovation that exists in our Group. Through the development programmes, networks are created for communication and the exchange of knowledge. The Academy is also an important arena for the implementation of XANO’s core values. 

The programmes are designed according to current needs, focusing for example on positions of responsibility within production and finance, as well as on employees within management teams. The MDs in the individual Group companies are responsible for nominating potential participants. Cultural and value-based issues are mandatory topics. Live project work linked to business development is also carried out in parallel with the programmes. 

Leadership
Committed and responsible employees create the conditions for a sustainable operation. In order to achieve this, we need skilled leaders who can see the potential that exists in both individuals and groups. For us, it is a matter of building long-term, healthy relationships, where leadership becomes a tool for achieving goals, resolving tasks and producing results. Against this background, we are working actively with leadership issues and skills development. 

Employee development
Our objective is for all employees to feel that they possess the correct skills for their work duties. There should also be development opportunities for those who so wish. In addition to Group-wide development programmes within the framework of XANO Academy, the Group companies conduct their own training courses within their specific skills areas.

Future activities
We are implementing a new sustainability strategy in 2023, covering areas such as defined objectives for skills development with a focus on sustainable transition. 

In 2022, five development programmes with a total of 72 participants were completed within the XANO Academy. These programmes covered subjects such as leadership, strategy and innovation, as well as corporate governance.
