Key projects in 2025

Management competency essentials program

The Company is committed to building a management team that is both business-savvy and skilled in management. In 2025, we launched the "Management Competency Essentials" empowerment program. This program is not only a company-wide training initiative but also a profound transformation that converts management theory into practical capabilities.

Focusing on practical scenarios and redefining management standards

The program breaks away from traditional theoretical instruction, focusing on key challenges faced by managers across three dimensions: self-management, team management, and task management. Content covers high-frequency practical scenarios such as role cognition, performance interviews, goal decomposition, and eficient meetings, aiming to unify management language and ensure immediate application of learning to effectively address real business challenges.

Introducing AI-powered simulation to enable learning

To overcome the limitations of traditional training—"easy to understand but limited practice"—the program innovatively introduced AI-powered simulation technology. Managers engage in simulated real-life dialogue scenarios (such as handling difficult employee communications) through AI, enabling low-cost, high-frequency practical training. This immersive and interactive learning approach helps managers internalize rules and systems into instinctive management behaviors.

Remarkable quantified outcomes and development of benchmark teams
