Personnel Development
Hakuto's approach
With the challenge of unpredictable changes in the business environment, we regard human resources as something that should be positioned at the core of management, and in FY2022 began to revise our personnel system to improve and create human value (employee value). The key points of the revisions are to achieve a dynamic, transparent, and highly satisfactory employee evaluation and compensation, and to encourage self-directed career development. We believe that our employees utilizing the company as a place for self-realization and continuing to grow with high levels of motivation will directly lead to the sustainable enhancement of our corporate value, and we will continue to actively secure, train, and invest in the human resources necessary to realize our management strategy.
Main initiatives
Education and training programs
Based on the basic idea that without the growth of employees, there is no growth of the company, we are developing human resources that respond to rapid changes in the business environment and diversifying individual values and needs, as well as modifying our training programs each year to match each level of expertise in order to further enhance professional development.
Under the theme of "providing each employee with opportunities to continue to achieve autonomous growth, and developing human resources to cause change and co-creation," we are working to improve the capabilities of each employee according to their individual level.
Enhancing engagement
The Company conducts periodic surveys of employee satisfaction and engagement, and is taking a number of steps to improve in those areas. We also focus on conducting effective 1-on-1 meetings to invigorate communication and build trust between supervisors and subordinates. This is expected to promote the growth of subordinates, increase their motivation, and enhance job satisfaction. We hope to improve engagement through the use of the career advancement support system introduced with the revision of the personnel system.
Development of global human resources
We are proactive in transferring motivated, high-performing employees to our overseas subsidiaries to gain overseas business experience and develop a global perspective in preparation for the continual expansion of our overseas business going forward. In bolstering language skills, we incorporate training not only in listening, reading, and writing, but also in improving the ability to communicate in English.
We have also introduced a training program for young employees to foster a global mindset by having them accomplish tasks directly related to real business in overseas locales. Moreover, based on the head office personnel system revised in FY2022, we are also revising the personnel systems of our overseas group companies. In the future, we aim to create an environment in which employees with diverse values can demonstrate their individual strengths and generate innovation through personnel rotations within the Group and personnel exchanges through training.
