Building Capabilities
Developing and nurturing employee talent is important for our long-term success.

Managers identify the skills required to achieve company goals, assess employee talent, identify skill gaps and create development plans for talented individuals. At company sites around the world and online, we offer training courses ranging from compliance and technical training to cross-cultural and career-planning courses. Individual operating companies sponsor additional training, often in partnership with schools and other institutions.
Developing Leaders
Recognizing the importance of effective leaders, ChevronTexaco also has designed programs specifically aimed at developing managers. For example:
- The ChevronTexaco Leadership Forum (CTLF), one of our most successful leadership development programs, is aimed at high-potential managers. CTLF seeks to increase participants' knowledge of ChevronTexaco's overall strategies and objectives and provide a forum for information sharing and networking.
- The ChevronTexaco Advanced Management Program is a three-week course that includes an on-site development assignment within ChevronTexaco's operations. In 2002, some 48 managers completed the program.
- A new supervisor program is provided for first-time managers, and 669 employees completed the course in 2002.
