Preparing Responsible Managers for the Metals and Mining IndustryThe Newmont Executive Leadership Program Bruce Hutton, Ph.D.
Agenda Background On Newmont Mining Executive Leadership Program Sustainable Development Framework Mining—Do The Extreme Issues Faced Provide Learning Opportunities?
Original Framing of the Program “We need to build a new generation of executive leaders and develop a consistent leadership culture.” “Today we are good mine operators and our mine managers spend 90% of their time worrying about issues inside the fence line. In the future, in order to earn our “Social License To Operate” (SLTO), they must have additional skills and spend 75% of their time dealing with issues outside the fence line.” “Most all new gold deposits discovered in the future will be in developing countries, which are a far more difficult and risky environment to develop and operate mines. The future will be far more challenging than the past…” Wayne Murdy, CEO (2004)
