SOCIAL PEOPLE EXCELLENCE Facilitating Global Exchanges and Connections Our employees are posted to our business units across geographies to gain the exposure required to excel in a globalised economy. We support them through a range of advisory services, and cultural awareness and language training to help their assimilation. My recent trip to Singapore and Malaysia has allowed me to have fruitful exchanges with diverse stakeholders, as I had the opportunity to meet with colleagues from Group level corporate functions to align business priorities and share best practices. This is consistent with our approach to building robust and globally integrated Management Systems by forging strong partnerships and engaging in joint efforts with colleagues across geographies. Together with my colleagues from iDirect’s U.S. operations and Group Sustainability, I visited Malaysia to engage with a leading supplier. We learnt about each other’s sustainability priorities, discussed the carbon footprint of our products and conducted a quality audit. Our meetings were productive and deepened our partnerships with our colleagues and our supplier. GUY DE WINNE VP Global Performance iDirect, Satcom (Belgium) My overseas assignment in Hong Kong helped me to gain a more holistic understanding of our company’s operations. Being able to apply a different lens of culture, communication and working styles to our local landscape is valuable. The experience allowed me to be more mindful and introspective of our own working practices, hence enhancing the mindset of bettering ourselves and the company. SAMANTHA LEE Manager Group Strategy and Sustainability Office (Singapore) During my overseas stint, I was given the opportunity to be part of the P2F Programme team that was ramping up the conversion capabilities at our MRO facilities in the U.S. I learnt to work with people from diverse backgrounds to contribute towards the success of the programme. The experience has been enriching and fulfilling, both personally and professionally.
