Global talent management consultancy, Development Dimensions International (DDI) has appointed Dr Bruce Watt as managing director for DDI Europe.
He will manage all aspects of the firm’s operations in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Poland and Russia.
Watt has been with DDI for more than 14 years, most recently as managing director of DDI Australia. He will be a leading member of the European executive leadership team, and be responsible for the creation and implementation of the region’s business strategy.
“I’m a big believer in mobilising people to help businesses grow,” Watt said. “A spreadsheet won’t grow an organisation, but a good talent management programme will.
“I’m looking forward to working with our multinational clients across Europe to help them unleash their employees’ potential and drive innovation and growth in their businesses.”
Rich Wellins, senior vice president of DDI, added: “We are pleased to be able to bring Bruce’s years of talent management and HR experience to Europe.
“He has a deep understanding of how people are the key to innovation and driving businesses forward, which our European clients will now be able to benefit from.”
