Singtel Sustainability Report 2010/2011
 
 
We conduct career development workshops to strengthen our people's awareness and capabilities to manage their own personal and career development. To date, more than 1,500 have attended these workshops with positive feedback.

Each year, our Singtel Learning Fiestas offer engaging keynote speakers and a wide range of informative and interesting bite-sized talks to reach various staff segments. The Learning Fiesta received even greater support this year, with participation rates improving across Singtel and NCS. 93% of all participants rated the event good or excellent. Participation rate increased to 86% from Singtel (FY09/10: 81%) and 70% from NCS (FY09/10: 47%).

Grooming leaders
One of our key leadership development investments is the Game for Global Growth (GGG) to prepare leaders to step into more significant leadership roles. This experiential leadership development programme spans over 12 months and includes residence programmes, executive coaching and action learning projects guided by senior executive sponsors. The second GGG cohort in 2010 comprised 33 participants from across the Singtel Group.

The Regional Leadership in Action (RLA) programme grooms high-potential emerging leaders to lead and manage business operations in a multinational context. Participants are involved in intense course work at a leading Singapore university and cross-entity teams to tackle challenging business assignments judged by our top management. In total, 144 participants have gone through the RLA since the programme began in 2006.

Talent retention
We value our people and monitor our talent retention rates closely to understand how to shape our people strategy to cater to our employees' personal and career development needs. The turnover rate by gender is about 17% for men and 20% for women.
