Assignment

Wigo4it grants the contractor a temporary assignment to act as an independent People & Organization Development Consultant, providing advice, expertise, and concrete interventions focused on strengthening leadership, professional development, sustainable employability, and collaboration within Wigo4it. The assignment is advisory and project-based, aimed at realizing and delivering pre-agreed results. The contractor is not part of Wigo4it's hierarchical structure and does not take over regular employer responsibilities.

Intended Results

The assignment aims to:

• Strengthen personal leadership and ownership of employees and teams;
• Advise Wigo4it on the further development of people and development policy;
• Identify patterns, bottlenecks, and development opportunities in the areas of people, team dynamics, and organizational development, and translate these into advice and interventions;
• Contribute expertise on themes such as future-oriented development, vitality, sustainable employability, job grading, development paths, and team development;
• Deliver concrete tools, methodologies, and interventions that Wigo4it can apply independently after the assignment is completed.

These deliverables constitute the scope of this assignment. Activities that do not contribute to these are not part of the assignment.

• A plan of approach with objectives, chosen approach, intended results, and a global planning;
• Advice and concrete contributions to the modernization of the job grading system, specifically focused on the development and application of competency profiles;
• Designed and executed interventions focused on personal leadership, ownership, collaboration, professional development, and vitality;
• Workshops, coaching interventions, and/or other development activities for employees and/or teams, aligned with the intended results of the assignment;

• Periodic advice on identified patterns, bottlenecks, and development opportunities in the areas of people, team dynamics, and organizational development;
• A final report with findings and recommendations for safeguarding and follow-up.

Independent Execution

The contractor will execute the assignment independently and according to their own professional judgment. Within the agreed objectives and results, the contractor will determine the approach, methodology, sequence, and manner of execution. Wigo4it will not provide direction or supervision on how the work is performed. Coordination will take place regarding the assignment, desired results, dependencies, and progress. The contractor will not act as a manager or representative of Wigo4it and will not exercise employer authority.

Decisions that fall under employer responsibility, including decisions about performance, appraisal, compensation, leave, absence, disciplinary measures, and hiring, development, or termination, remain with Wigo4it.

Collaboration

To perform the assignment, the contractor may independently seek coordination with relevant employees and roles within Wigo4it, including People Managers, HR Advice, Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and Tribe Leads. This collaboration aims to gather information, contribute expertise, and achieve the agreed-upon results, and does not create a hierarchical relationship.

Engagement and Execution

For the realization of the agreed-upon results, an average engagement of approximately 36 hours per week is assumed. This volume is an indication of the expected effort for achieving the assignment results and does not constitute a fixed work schedule. The contractor will determine where, when, and how the work is performed, within the necessary organizational and substantive dependencies of the assignment. Presence at specific meetings may be agreed upon when necessary for achieving a result.

Periodic progress meetings will be held regarding achieved results, any bottlenecks, dependencies, and results yet to be delivered.
