High-potential secures the green light for energy efficiency
If you’re a high-potential at Philips you get to influence change, not
just within the company but also in the outside world. For Tram Huynh that
means being able to switch whole cities on to energy efficient lighting, making
the streets safer, cities more beautiful and the planet greener. Discover how she goes about it.
Putting Philips on top in China
The fact that Eva Zhang only graduated from Fudan University (Shanghai, China) in 2009 is a positive advantage to Philips. It means that she’s still very close to how Chinese universities work and the mindset of Chinese students. And since part of her job is to put Philips among the top most attractive employers for graduates in China, that’s valuable knowledge indeed. Read
about her experiences.
Joining the family – Philips New Venture Integration
New Philips employees
don’t always come one by one as a result of recruitment campaigns or job
advertisements. The company’s active policy of mergers and acquisitions means
that sometimes they come in thousands. Helping to integrate the workforce of
entire companies, engage new employees and ultimately drive value creation is
the role of Philips’ New Venture Integration (NVI) team. We talked to Sandra
Stassar, NVI senior communications manager about how she helps new employees to
quickly feel part of the Philips family. Read about the integration process.
Staying at the cutting edge
Erik Houbolt learned a great deal while working for Philips in Drachten, not just in terms of technical knowledge but also in terms of leadership and team-building skills. It set him in good stead to take on a new role in a completely different part of Philips. We talked to him about his move from shaver development in Drachten to a departmental manager position in Singapore.
