The new Slovenian Prime Minister Robert Golob is using his corporate experience to select people who will take important positions, so all parliamentarians from his party had to answer 12 questions from the Gallup test, which measures the engagement and motivation of employees in companies.

- This is a test that provides an analysis of values, which encourages the positive sides of the individual and avoids potential conflicts in the group - said for the Ljubljana newspaper "Delo" Parliament Speaker Urska Klakocar Zupancic from Golob's party, "Freedom Movement ”.

Like the other 12 lawmakers on the list for the strongest party in parliament, Klakocar Zupancic also answered questions from the Gallup QXNUMX test, the first of which read: "Do you know what is expected of you at work?

Before entering politics, Golob used the Gallup test to select his associates at a time when he was managing the large energy company GEN I.

He is the second Slovenian Prime Minister who intends to transfer his previous business experiences and methods of human resource management to politics, states "Delo".

The daily adds that such methods for selecting associates and leading teams were first introduced in Slovenian politics by the late Prime Minister and President Janez Drnovsek, who was a branch manager of Ljubljanska Banka and an experienced economist before entering senior politics.
