Your Personal and Professional Development Journey

Employee development is a key part of our global talent management strategy. Elanco welcomes new employees with a comprehensive onboarding curriculum for U.S.- based new hires. This includes a multi-day introduction to our mission, vision and core business areas – laying the foundation for successful integration into the company. The program seeks to build functional understanding while providing opportunities for relationship building, personal enrichment and community volunteerism.

We support individualized development journeys for all employees. Our training and development programs involve content targeted at different segments of our workforce – including courses that are universal for all employees, training specific to job functions, and self-directed, self-paced content for additional skills growth. Furthermore, each business function and regional affiliate provides role- and location specific training that complements company-wide learning and development programs.

Our Leadership Programs

Elanco invests significantly in our leaders today – and those of tomorrow. Our comprehensive leadership development program equips new and tenured managers with the strategy and people skills to build and lead high-performing teams.

The Emerging Leaders Program (ELP) focuses on developing top talent individual contributors into future leaders with the confidence and skills to influence without a title. The curriculum is focused on core leadership essentials, receiving feedback, strategies for handling crucial conversations, influencing strategies and how to be a role model representing Elanco’s culture.

Melissa Wallis Portrait
There are many opportunities at Elanco for professional development and career growth. I’ve been fortunate to take on a secondment role in a different functional area, which gave me great experience and was the stepping stone into my current management role. I’ve also participated in Elanco’s Women in Leadership Program, where I’ve expanded my knowledge in areas such as business acumen and building trust as a leader.
