Thank you for posting your response. I am disappointed you do not feel we develop people very well at AMS given our focus on learning and development through the EDGE programme. Can I recommend you have a conversation with laura.sexton@alexmann.com who is part of our Talent Development team and can point you towards the things relevant for your role as well as tools on how to build a personal development plan with your line manager.
