Episode 55: Listening to Learn: Tripti Jha, Chief Talent & People Solutions Officer, Novartis

Tripti shares her passion for the role of HR in delivering Novartis' purpose, to reimagine medicine. Discussing the role of individuals in organisational transformation, Tripti talks about shaping leadership and talent in a way that brings culture to life. Discussing her work to make career opportunities more transparent, Tripti provides an example of a pilot mentoring programme that is more agile, encourages a mindset change and empowers talent. Advocating that the best way to drive Diversity, Equity & Inclusion is to 'listen to learn', Tripti describes the approach of giving leaders the tools to listen, as listening is perhaps one of the most presumed skills, and how this approach creates transformation.
