Global Chief HR Officer Message
Miho TanimotoGlobal Chief HR Officer, dentsu
Believing in brilliance:
HR’s commitment to energizing our people
Dentsu’s vision to be at the forefront of people-centered transformations that shape society captures our passion for unleashing human potential. We, the HR team, believe in this universal drive that each employee holds for contribution and growth, and are committed to helping achieve this by contributing to and promoting self-directed development to unleash the potential that each employee possesses. With this commitment, dentsu’ HR strategy is designed to initiate a virtuous cycle: investing in individual potential fosters further contributions, which, in turn, fuel ongoing reinvestment in our people.
To believe in our brilliance and build a vibrant organization. To achieve this goal, one of the initiatives we focused on is introducing a standardized global program that enables us to review our top 100 leaders and identify attributes required for leadership. Believing in the power of positive leadership to strengthen our organization, we engaged in meaningful dialogues across various organizational levels to craft the “dentsu Leadership Attributes.” With a leadership vision identified through this program that drives our Group’s growth, we will discuss our succession plans and talent development strategies.
In addition, through dialogues with employees globally, we’ve gained insight into their engagement and expectations for dentsu. Through open communication and dialogues addressing strengths and areas for improvement, we aim to build trust between the leadership team and employees and gather vital insights for change.
With dentsu’s purpose “an invitation to the never before”, we exist to create new solutions and new beginnings for society. Dentsu’s business is generated by people-centered initiatives. Our new slogan, “We aspire to innovate and surpass expectations”, reflects our collective ambition. I will continue leading HR to develop the exceptional talent that defines dentsu and drives the transformation of society.
