We believe in
Our People

“Cultivating the rich diversity brought by our talents is also a fundamental principle in our journey. Key milestones in our sustainability journey included organising Group functional forums to foster the exchange of ideas and share best practices. 

 

These programs encourage meaningful connections with our communities by actively participating in multi-stakeholder consultative workshops and a series of informal events aimed at promoting social interactions and enhancing team spirit.”


 

 

Diversity

“Our engagement on Diversity and Ethics is a driving force in achieving a sustainability mindset. Our unique Go Beyond Gender programme is a testimony to the Group’s commitment to delivering structural changes. True to our purpose, we will continue to invest in human capital and our network of stakeholders to drive positive and meaningful impact. We look forward to the implementation of our roadmap across all our operations and geographies as well as the lessons to be learned along this path.”

Let’s hear from our team members!
CIEL HEC Leadership Development Programme

The HEC leadership program goes beyond academia; it serves as an additional step in the journey toward becoming a more adept leader and, most importantly, a better person.

It has empowered me with the knowledge, skills, and network necessary to succeed in my leadership journey.
Nathalie Daynes

We have come to realise that clusters, despite their differences, often share common challenges. 

One of the striking commonalities we have discovered is the struggle to retain talents. It is fascinating to see how similar issues transcend across various clusters.
Rickesh Nunkoo

The journey had subject matter experts from HEC and field experts in our respective cluster of CIEL Group where lots of cross-fertilization, sharing, and learning took place.
Sandeep Raut

The HEC program provided a valuable experience, and I extend my gratitude to CIEL Group for this opportunity. The exercises conducted throughout the program significantly enhanced our understanding of these topics and contributed to our development
Valerie Duval

The experience broadened our perspective and introduced us to new things like artificial intelligence, which, in our fast-paced routines, often goes unexplored.
Vivien Tan

As a final thought, HEC is not just about academics, but about introspection and growth. It reinforces my belief that learning is a life-long journey.
