Pros

DRC has the best of many organizations I've worked for: it has a solid core of long-standing, loyal employees while remaining open to new talent, change and innovation. A key leadership concept is "leadership with responsibility," meaning you are given a lot of room as a leader to try new ways of working and take risks.... and you will be held accountable. It is a learning organization that values self-reflection and pragmatism.

Cons

While the program side has grown a lot in recent years, the support functions are still catching up. DRC is making huge strides but to stay competitive, more investment is needed, particularly to retain and develop DRC's enormous pool of national employees.

Dear colleague, Thank you for your positive feedback. Indeed, our Leadership Concept is something that we put a lot on emphasis with, especially being such a geographically dispersed organization. We are happy to hear that the concept of "Freedom of Action with Responsibility" is visible in your office. /Marcos - Talent Management
