We focus on improving digital learning for our employees in three countries: Thailand, Vietnam, and Italy, using modern technology so that they could work in a hybrid environment from anywhere, strengthening our organization and preparing employees with the future skill set they need to overcome challenges.”
This includes employee development plans designed to respond to rapid and unexpected changes, based on the ’70:20:10′ principle, which entails On-the-Job Training (70%), Coaching and Mentoring (20%), and Online-Offline Training (10%). In the COVID-19 era, the company prioritizes the ‘Anytime-Anywhere’ method of integrated learning, which connects various learning channels, both online and offline.

“On behalf of Central Retail, we would like to express our gratitude and honor for receiving this esteemed award from the Employer Branding Institute and World HRD Congress. This is yet another accomplishment and motivation for us to keep focusing on human resource development.
