According to Mr Mackie the program is working with DiJones continuing to put the tools in place to nurture the team.
“This is an ongoing program that has a range of elements to ensure it is well rounded and intensive. We truly believe that through a deeper sense of care, understanding and focus we can ‘unlock more’ than our team members sometimes think is possible. For us, at DiJones it’s people first.

It was important to ensure that our leaders were well equipped with an understanding of where DiJones is headed and what it really meant to be agile/dynamic, the role of Integrity, how to be trustworthy, a market leader and how to offer the extraordinary.”
