Challenge:
The Unilever Management Development Programme (UMDP) is an ambitious global learning initiative targeting 15,500 supervisors, first- and second-line managers, to take a fresh look at the role of a manager and how they create value.
Solution:

Awards:
This programme has been a finalist in the CIPD People Management Awards and Personnel Today Awards.
