At Nedbank, we subscribe to the belief that the only real way to lead is from the front. It's a philosophy that guides our organisation in its vision to become southern Africa's most highly rated and respected bank, and one that influences our managers and executives in their day-to-day actions.       That's why our leaders take the time to listen to staff members; to understand their needs and concerns; and communicate openly about what is being done to address those needs. Most importantly, the leaders at Nedbank make decisions, consulting the people whom those decisions will impact upon.       Ultimately, our managers and leaders are passionate about bringing out the best in others. They recognise that there is plenty of room at Nedbank for more leaders and managers, which is why they empower others to realise their full potential and take up positions of leadership themselves.       There is no place at Nedbank for hierarchy and territorialism. This is a place where leaders are made – and then go on to help others achieve greatness.
