Message from Head of Talent Engagement and CFO... Dear Friends of HKBN, Many companies hold back on developing their staff in fear that they will leave for better positions elsewhere. At HKBN, we think differently - we make exceptional career-changing investments in our Talents at all levels, be it entry level or senior executives, and then proactively upgrade their career responsibility and authority to keep them engaged and challenged. We would much rather have great Talents that we have to fight to retain than bad staff that other companies don’t want. We would much rather have headhunters calling our phones off the hook than have no headhunters chasing our executives. Our “CXO of the Future” Management Trainees, Mingo Tsang and Kiana Shek were the best out of 1,153 applicants, i.e. during their school years they were the very top performers. During their training program, without them knowing it, we intentionally pushed them beyond their capabilities to see how they would respond. It is much better to learn early on from a HK$40K mistake (which they did) than to make a HK$4 million or even HK$40 million mistake later in their careers. Everyone responds well to success but it is how one responds to adversity that makes great leaders – this is why we had a lot of fun giving them plenty of unexpected adversities during their training year. After our accelerated 12-month training period with a fixed income of HK$36,000/month, Mingo and Kiana were “fired” and were required to reapply for new positions in our company at prevailing market rates. We are pleased to see that both successfully secured their long term roles with Mingo based in Hong Kong as Assistant Manager, Customer Relations, and Kiana in Shanghai and Beijing as Assistant Manager, China Business, Business Development. We are even more proud to welcome them as the youngest of our fellow 63 Manager-Co-owners. Luck is being ready when opportunity arrives. We are working hard today, to ensure that we are lucky with our CXO Talents 10-15 years from now. NiQ Lai Head of Talent Engagement and CFO August 2012 P.3
