Driving ahead with enthusiasm... 7TomTom Annual Report 2006
…building a great place to work
Our people are fundamental to our
success, and TomTom is committed
to attracting and retaining the best talent
in the market. We employ exceptional
people from more than 35 different
countries. As we build a truly global
organisation, we seek to motivate, inspire
and engage our people through open
dialogue, clear career opportunities and
fair reward.
We strive to keep an environment
at TomTom that is both challenging
and entrepreneurial, and we place
great emphasis on fostering innovation,
creativity and teamwork. Our enthusiasm
is founded on our peoples’ open spirit,
passion for results and get-things-done
mindset, all of which are pivotal in keeping
TomTom a great place to work.
Case study
— Attracting the right people
Being aware that TomTom was poised
to grow rapidly, we intensified our
recruitment efforts in 2006. Because
our people are key to achieving our goals,
we decided to roll out an international
recruitment campaign featuring TomTom
employees. We selected male and female
staff from many different countries and
with many cultural backgrounds who
represent our peoples’ values – passion
for results, open spirit and innovative
thinking. The result was a unique and a
highly successful TomTom recruitment
advertising campaign.
Driving ahead
with enthusiasm...
We set clear, challenging targets for
our people and offer them the means
to achieve them, and to improve on
their previous performance.
In addition, we endeavour to set the
conditions necessary for our people
to put their creativity and ambitions
to work towards a better business
outcome.
