German term or phrase: Holdingpersonal
"2000 wechselte er zur XYZ AG als Referent Personalentwicklung und Personalbetreuung für das Führungs- und Holdingpersonal."

Does this just mean holding company personnel, or parent company staff etc., or does holding here have some special meaning? Please help with a description of what Holdingpersonal actually are, and why these two types of personnel would go together. Thank you!
