, OL 655 Case Study 1
Introduction
McCormick spice company operates with a specific set of driving values: Ethics,
Teamwork, High Performance, Innovation, Concern for others, and Success (Mccormick.com,
2017). Their culture is based on principals that include “Power of People” as well as
“Performance-Led Performance” (Mccormick.com, 2017). “Innovation” is the foundation for all
of these layers of ethics, principals, and strategies. McCormick needs to develop programs from
within, seeing as people are their largest and most important investments, in order to build its
foundation of innovation.
m
er as
One of McCormick’s main focuses is succession planning in which they concentrate on
co
eH w
training and development. With that in mind, the leadership development program known as
o.
Multiple Management Board (MBB) was developed in which development is combined with
rs e
ou urc
goal achievements (Binglum & Galagan, 2007). In the MMB program members are evaluated
by their peers over their performance, which makes evaluations difficult. Currently, all of the
o
aC s
training that is developed is done so with the needs of the business in mind (Binglum, et al,
vi y re
2007).

As McCormick branches out and continues acquiring companies such as Reckitt
Benckiser’s food division this year, partnering with sustainable projects such as NCBA-CLUSA
is
and USAID helping farmers in Madagascar, and further its appeal to millennials it is becoming
Th
ever more apparent that McCormick must further innovate its training strategies to meet the
needs of the changing workforce (McCormick.com, 2017). Strategic training and development
sh
initiatives can take many roads. I would like to emphasize Expanding who is trained (Noe,
2017).
