Leonardo Response

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are pleased to hear you felt the work and the team here were positives. It is disappointing though that you didn’t feel the management and leadership was equally as positive. We have recently launched our new People Leader Community in Luton to work with everyone in a management position to make them more rounded managers. Feedback so far has been positive and we hope it will have a positive impact across all teams.
