2. What’s the Human Capital Strategy in accordance to RBS

4. 3. Give Examples how RBS leverage data and information to the level of knowledge?
• RBS conducted annual survey “Your Feedback”. RBS uses the data from survey to help understand effectiveness of key
initiatives such as continuous framework “Work-Out”. Feedback from survey also highlighted one of key drivers of employee
engagement was non-financial recognition. RBS Remuneration & Benefits respond that by creating program “The Big Thank
You”, which enable managers to recognize excellence in customer service, such as; box of chocolate, red letter day and wine.
• RBS built a system called Human Capital Toolkit that helps HR professional across the Group diagnose issues, develop
interventions and share best practices.
• As an example, the Toolkit helps Paul & Helen analyze bank brand in the Group by region, by area manager, by aggregate and
by division in terms of customer service, financial performance, leadership, engagement and other aspects. The Toolkit informs
area branch managers influence on business performance and people performance was not as strong as the branch manager’s
influence. The data also said the company need to make it worthwhile for talented people to stay as branch managers.
• Brand managers is undervalued role for the last five years, because the job is seen as stepping stone.
• From that finding, the company view that the role of branch managers should be filled by high-quality people. In order to get
those high-quality people, several ways are considered such as:
• Raise of income
• People transfer from other division who has entrepreneur skill
• Transfer of Area Manager into Branch Manager
• HR Toolkit also implementing rating for branch managers (categorized as A and B), which then A-rated managers are taken as
role model. And managers who get B rating, considered as talent who need appropriate development to becoming A-rated
manager.
• Data from Toolkit also used to accurately segment branch managers and examine potential correlations between their
characteristics and competencies
