When asked about what stands out among this year's Best Employers, Mary Yu, Head of Talent Solutions, Aon Hewitt Hong Kong, said: "Culture is the binding force between the what and the how, bringing together the aspirations of the workforce with those of the business. Best Employers actualise their culture by linking their employer brand promises to their core values in order to drive high performance. This empowers the organisation to deliver a culture that is easily embraced at all levels, and supports delivery of business outcomes."

 

Tzeitel Fernandes, Managing Director, Aon Hewitt Hong Kong, added: "Business is changing at the speed of light, which creates new challenges in talent management. Talent expectations and aspirations are evolving with each generation, and more than ever, organisations must be adaptable to survive--and succeed."

 

Fritz Yeung, Best Employers -- Hong Kong Programme Lead, Aon Hewitt Hong Kong, added: "Best Employers realise that engagement levels are badly affected when employees don't have visibility on their career path in the organisation. It's no longer enough to have performance conversations just once a year, which is why Best Employers take the time to train their people managers to communicate a vision around how team members can transform their careers and grow in the organisation, as well as equip managers to communicate rewards effectively. As a result, Best Employers in Hong Kong record employee engagement scores 25 points higher than the market average--which delivers direct and positive impact on business performance, with 19 higher growth in revenue than the market average."
