Call it a tribe: How UBA offers you a community and a strong support system that lasts a lifetime
Community and a strong support system
At UBA, we do not believe in the idea of a single strong man who figured everything out on his own. We do not consider the word ‘alone’ a part of our vocabulary. We belong together and succeed together. We offer strength and provide a strong support system that ensures that no one is weak or feels inadequate. And because we are a driven community, no one stays down.
We also inculcate in our people the courage to ask for help when they need it and the swiftness to give it when it is required, without considering it a bother.
In fact, we anticipate questions and requests for assistance because we know that people grow better when we ask questions.
We also supply an avalanche of resources you can reach for, as well as materials that offer insight and advice on a wide range of topics that can help you become a more productive and effective member of the tribe.
Collaboration and teamwork
With the diversity of individuals in our tribe, we are able to draw ideas and strength when we work as a team which helps us see things in a better perspective.
We understand the importance of concentration on individual tasks, but also offer you a team you can trust, communicate with, share ideas with and achieve more with. We are flexible about this, providing relaxing avenues for
group discussions, brainstorming, bonding and planning and the tools that help you carry your team with you wherever you are around the globe.
This collaboration further grows the tribe, as new employees, who are quickly grafted in by the support of the team, can showcase their best strengths without inhibition. Our team activities help improve the strength of the team and the effectiveness of individual team members. We simply love collaboration.
Networking across the company hierarchy
Hierarchy is often misunderstood as a divide, rather than a tool to bring people closer. At UBA, we see things differently. Hierarchy, in fact, is a strong networking tool to share knowledge, experience, and grow effective relationships within the organization. By this, we believe confidence, loyalty and useful resources are built to help each person stand out among competition.
The UBA Academy
The UBA academy is poised to train and develop our workforce with cutting edge skills to excel in their profession. We see learning as an Integral part of our growth, hence we offer different learning methods ranging from e-learning programmes, classroom trainings to off-site trainings in different parts of the world. With improved knowledge and skill set, we also provide ample opportunities to put them to work. Our people are accountable and deliberate about skill acquisition, and we provide the avenue for them to thrive.
We incentivize and reward excellence
At UBA, we do not just train our people to be the best in the job, we also offer them encouragement, recognition and rewards. We value the contribution of each team member and go the extra mile to make them happy.
UBA remains the ideal workplace to realize potentials and enjoy progressive career advancement. As part of our commitment to reward excellence, 5,000 staff were promoted in the last 18 months, three thousand in 2017 and two
thousand in 2018. This is how we recognize and reward impeccable effort and performance.
We will continue to sustain this drive to better improve our workforce. Here’s another reason why we are proud to call it a tribe.
Join our tribe.
