Leadership compass

Leadership is a journey where the Group's colleagues are guided by a leadership compass. This is an index of four statements that describe the values-based leadership direction of an organisation:

Develop my team;

Inspire partnerships based on each other's strengths;

Build trust by encouraging openness;

Empower to take responsibility.

Leadership development is crucial to us. The Ignitis Group Leadership Map includes 4 main leadership programs:

Potential programme

This programme is designed for professionals with high potential for team leadership and performance. It focuses on business continuity, shift management, and workload distribution within the team, preparing future leaders to excel in managing and guiding their teams effectively.

Leaders growing programme

One of our longest-running executive development programmes, consisting of three modules. It equips newly-joined or mid-career managers with a unified understanding of leadership, delegation, cognitive behavior, team dynamics, and coaching leadership.

The leaders' journey

The leaders' journey is a hybrid leadership program for all managers within the Group. This innovative, multi-format program emphasizes team-building conversations, managing challenging team dynamics, fostering responsibility and empowerment, and creating strengths-based partnerships.

Newcomer's experience

We understand that the first days and months are crucial for building a strong foundation for future collaboration. During the onboarding period, we create a hybrid, interactive experience for new team members. Colleagues joining the Group participate in office tours, attend Newcomer Week sessions where they learn about Ignitis Group's activities, and navigate their onboarding journey using virtual tools like “Newcomer” and “Greentown”, which provide essential information throughout the first three months.

Raise a “Newcomer”

"Newcomer" is an interactive game for new Ignitis Group employees, designed to help you get to know the Group better during your first three months. By nurturing a virtual plant, you gain knowledge about the working environment, company details, and the Group’s activities. Each milestone — from the first day to the first month — requires applying what you’ve learned, helping your Newcomer plant grow as you do.

Supply Energy to "Greentown"

"Greentown" is a virtual three-month adaptation exercise for new managers at Ignitis Group. The goal is to light up the city by bringing four energy facilities — a combined heat and power plant, a wind farm, a hydroelectric power plant, and a solar power plant — online. As the new manager completes tasks from the first day, week, month, and third month, these facilities gradually start operating, supplying electricity to the city's buildings. This engaging exercise helps managers integrate and understand their role within the company.
