New leadership bulldozer change though with out thought on long term strategy - Anonymous employee Howden Employee Review

Completely focused on growth, without correct resources/structure at the centre to “keep up”. The new central functions management team’s objectives do not match that of the different business lines and regional teams. So hard work in building process structure dissipates when/if a business does not want to adopt and no air coverage provided from leadership to the constant/unrealistic demands of business lines. Results in; long hours, excessive pressure and work going unrecognised. New management do not take guidance just give orders/present “good on paper” plans which can’t be implemented in the current structure.
