Personal and professional development

BB Foundation invests in the continuous development of people, as it believes in sharing knowledge as a tool for professional improvement. We encourage training as a way to expand and disseminate organizational knowledge. BB Foundation grants scholarships for higher education and languages, in addition to encouraging the obtaining of professional certification.

The development and self-development of BB Foundation’s employees rely on an organizational culture booster, the Corporate University of Banco do Brasil - UniBB, a distance learning platform that provides self-instructional courses and paths, prepared by specialists from Banco do Brasil and from institutions of recognized expertise in knowledge management in areas of interest to the BB conglomerate.

The annual training goal for each employee is 40 hours, with courses oriented and aligned with BB Foundation's operating strategy. The leadership is offered specific courses focused on the performance of management attributions. In 2022, the average hours of employee training was 46.80 hours.
‍
To monitor professional performance, all employees carry out assessments and are evaluated using the Professional Performance Management system based on Skills and Results (PPM), which measures the contribution of each employee based on the relationship between professional performance and skills necessary to fulfill their responsibilities.

Staff / Personnel

BB Foundation employees are assigned by its founder Banco do Brasil, to provide services to the organization. Since 2021, the institution's Bylaws have allowed the hiring of professionals available in the market. The structuring for the reception of these new employees is carried out by the Recruitment and Selection – R&S company. With the objective of mapping candidates who meet the necessary requirements for the positions available, the company adds credibility, transparency and impersonality to the selection processes. It also provides publicity, economy and efficiency to the process as a whole.

Employees hired in the market were provided with solutions for providing benefits, such as food vouchers and meal vouchers. They also have training and follow-up of professional development through periodic performance evaluation.

BB Foundation’s Programa iNova (Innovate Program)

In order to identify and analyze professional skills and value people, developing and recognizing their talents, BB Foundation launched, in September 2022, the BB Foundation’s Programa iNova. The themes worked on in the program involve: mapping skills, self-knowledge, sustainable leadership, mentoring and innovation, knowledge management, among others.

Talks were held on: Self-awareness, Mindfulness, Management by Context and Negotiation. Design Thinking and Negotiation actions were also carried out with the objective of mapping information about the context, knowledge and skills necessary for the correct performance of internal activities.

To promote self-knowledge, an individual assessment was contracted for all of the BB Foundation’s employees, with the assistance of psychologists from the institution itself. Feedback was also provided to clarify individual results, as well as guidance on building an action plan for personal and professional development.
