As we come together as explorers at Syensqo, it’s an opportunity to reflect on where we are now and where we want to go in the future — including our personal development and career advancement. Continuous personal development is essential throughout your career, to stay competitive, adaptable, and fulfilled. Engaging in personal development allows explorers to acquire new skills, knowledge, and experiences that can enhance their performance in their current roles and prepare them for future opportunities. We encourage you to view learning and development as a journey filled with discovery and opportunities to navigate new challenges.

Our development philosophy is a set of guiding principles that shapes how we approach skill-building, performance culture, and accelerated development. Throughout the following wiki pages you'll discover an abundance of helpful development resources.
For Explorers
- I drive my development and career, with the strong support of my manager.
- I learn the most through my daily work and maintain a continuous learning mindset.
- I seek projects and roles to accelerate my development and build capabilities for the future.
For Managers
- I encourage my team to spend time developing themselves and support time 'away' from day-to-day activities to create the habit of learning.
- I specifically support skill building during my recurring check-in discussions — occurring at least once per quarter.
- I am responsible for ensuring my team has development opportunities.
In addition, Syensqo Academies are designed to offer customized development solutions for target audiences. Our academies are aligned with business goals, leverage development plans focused on building critical skills, include diverse ways of learning and are committed to simplification.

The research is clear about how we develop successfully: we benefit most from on-the-job training, then learning from others, and sometimes formal training.

Our focus is on the most sought-after technical skills in the chemical sector, backed by industry research including; technical skills relevant to individual scope, safety, health and wellbeing, business integrity, sustainability, language training and more. To bridge these skill gaps and unlock the competitive advantage we actively organize global and local targeted development campaigns.
On-the-job training is crucial for ensuring our explorers have the necessary skills and knowledge to perform their jobs safely and effectively. Consider these daily interactions with leaders, managers and peers at our industrial sites:
Equipment Operation | Chemical Handling and Storage | Process Control |
|---|---|---|
Training on operating various types of machinery and equipment used in chemical processing, such as reactors, distillation columns, pumps, and valves. Employees learn how to start up, shut down, and troubleshoot equipment under the guidance of experienced operators. Chemical Handling and Storage: Instruction on the safe handling, storage, and disposal of chemicals according to regulatory standards. This includes proper labeling, containment, and spill response procedures. | Instruction on the safe handling, storage, and disposal of chemicals according to regulatory standards. This includes proper labeling, containment, and spill response procedures. | Training on monitoring and controlling chemical processes to ensure product quality and efficiency. This may involve learning how to use control systems, instrumentation, and process simulation software. |
Quality Assurance | Maintenance and Repair | Regulatory Compliance |
Education on quality control procedures, including sampling, testing, and analysis of raw materials and finished products. Employees learn how to identify and address quality issues to maintain product integrity. | Hands-on training in equipment maintenance and repair to minimize downtime and ensure operational reliability. This may include preventive maintenance tasks, troubleshooting common problems, and performing minor repairs. | Training on relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards governing the chemical industry. This ensures that employees understand their responsibilities regarding environmental protection, workplace safety, and product quality. |
Teamwork and Communication | ||
| Ongoing development of interpersonal skills and teamwork abilities through collaborative projects and group activities. This helps employees effectively communicate with colleagues, supervisors, and other stakeholders in the workplace. | ||
These examples highlight the diverse range of on-the-job training opportunities available, all aimed at equipping explorers with the skills, mindsets, and behaviors needed to succeed in their roles while ensuring safety, quality, and regulatory compliance. It’s important for explorers to find a balance between developing their technical and behavioral skills while maintaining a continuous learning mindset. Keep in mind when building a development plan unique to you — if it doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you.
Remember - Managers specifically support skill building during the recurring check-in discussions — occurring at least once per quarter. The Manager and Explorer discuss openly how the Explorer delivers against the defined goals and where development actions could increase performance.
