Organisational Capability describes our ability to respond to changing business need and deliver on our strategic priorities by building collective skills, experience and alignment of our people. This is achieved through effective workforce planning and talent management to enable the flexible deployment of our people.

In line with Strategy 2030, we will invest in our people, enabling them to thrive with a continued focus on high performance and development.
