Hogan 返校同學會

Back to School - the Hogan Certified Alumni Reunion

張貼日期:202219

年底時光,正是回顧過去這一年的絕佳時刻。Hogan返校同學會也在2021最後一個工作日這溫馨的時刻舉行。地點選在新生南路靜巷中的《聲色》 - 主人收藏的豐富黑膠唱片和懷舊氛圍,為這場同學會注入暖意,也讓在場分享的Hogan校友們更是暢所欲言。

首先分享的是重量級的長興材料人資部長余靜雯,與大家分享《關鍵人才評鑑的成功案例》。南臺灣指標性傳統產業長興材料是董事長第二代傳承企業,搭配專業經理管理團隊,營運穩健,員工認同感高,流動率極低。長興透過Hogan測評首先分析公司主管的性格特質,篩選人才,建置接班領導梯隊的盤點與發展計畫,並將這套測評貫徹公司管理層,將主管性格資訊建立資料庫,且追蹤成效,做為公司擬定與執行個人發展計畫的參考。

同時,因公司穩定,流動率相對較低。在穩定的環境中,培養可以因應研發力需求大、變化多端環境的研發團隊,是經營團隊的挑戰之一。人資團隊透過Hogan測評觀察到長興研發團隊與其他科技人才不同,偏向「體制內改革」、執行者的特色,因此在培養發展與接班領導者的時候,也特別針對這些特質做出規劃。長興透過性格測評的活用,找對人才、放對位置,讓現場的夥伴們收穫良多。

接下來是愛德華生命科學的台灣與香港地區人力資源部資深經理張彥菁分享《亞太組織發展的成功案例》。謙虛的她表示希望秉持羅睿蘭的名言「你存在的價值,不在於你瞭解了什麼,而在於分享了什麼。」的精神來分享經驗。她表示總公司對於同仁的評比與發展抱持相當開放的態度,讓她放手規劃。在她成功地將Hogan測評系統導入台灣經營團隊,且運用於團隊與個人的發展計畫後,這項措施成為亞太地區的成功案例,藉此推動至中國與韓國地區。

聽完兩位資深經理分享Hogan測評的運用之後,堅持生活與工作平衡的睿信,在每季線上、實體舉行的沙龍活動中,一定會將專業的分享搭配休閒的活動。這次也當然在同學會的尾聲為大家規劃了療癒身心的音樂分享。音樂達人Howard引領大家透過黑膠唱片的欣賞,進入音樂的饗宴。從音樂類型的整體介紹開始,Howard以分享的故事為串場,生動地介紹許多經典的音樂,另分享最受歡迎的聖誕歌曲,有些也以黑膠唱片呈獻,臨場感、懷舊感滿滿。串場的摸彩活動,也呼應年底的佳節氣氛。

聲色的女主人現身,介紹對黑膠唱片的熱愛,以及店內收藏的手搖留聲機。來賓也現場聆聽由1910年代的留聲機播放的周璇演唱的歌曲,為這場同學會做了最好的結語。

期待下一次的聚會。祝各位新的一年工作及生活平衡。Work and Life Balance!

Year end is the perfect time for reflection, a time to ponder upon the ups and down of the past year. Hosted by Infelligent Coaching & Consulting on last working day in 2021, the Hogan Certified Alumni Reunion can’t happen at a better time. The venue is at Good Sound, a coffee shop in a quiet alley that is known for its wide collection of vinyl records. It is in such an inviting atmosphere, some of our alumni shared their experiences of using Hogan assessments.

Judy Yu, HR Manager at Eternal Materials, spoke on assessment system for key talents. Eternal Materials is a leading traditional manufacturing company in southern Taiwan that enjoys its success with high employment engagement and very low turnover. Through insight gained from Hogan Personality Assessments, Judy’s team established the company’s talent selection, successor and development plans. The assessment system was implemented company-wide. All data was analyzed and compiled as the basis for tracking leader’s performance and development.

One of the challenges faced by the company, given the mild temperament of the employees, is to develop a R&D leadership team equipped for a changing environment. With the help of Hogan personality data, the HR team recognized the employees’ preference for reforming within the system and made the needed changes accordingly. For Judy, Hogan’s assessments have helped Eternal find the right talent, put them in the right places.

Gina Chang, Senior Manager of HR, Hong Kong and Taiwan at Edwards Life Sciences, went on to share her story. Ever so modest, she first quoted Ginni Rometty’s statement: “Your value will be not what you know; it will be what you share.” Being fully authorized on matters of employment development from the headquarters, Gina utilized Hogan personality assessments for her team in Taiwan. Following its success, the system is now incorporated in China and Korea.

Both Judy and Gina emphasized the importance of feedbacks. Feedbacks from peers and colleagues add dimension to the learning and development.

Following the sharing, it was time for some relaxation. A believer in balancing life and work, Infelligent’s Salon event series always combine learning with some elements of fun. This time, Howard, an expert in music, gave the audience a quick flashback of music. He also played a number of pieces from the vinyl collection at Good Sound. Getz/Gilberto’s The Girl from Ipanema, Bing Cosby’s White Christmas, Idina Menzel and Michael Buble’s Baby, It’s Cold Outside, Dan Fogelberg’s Same Old Lang Syne, and George Michael’s Last Christmas… the playlist was quite diverse but filled with holiday spirit.

As the finale, Pei-ru, the owner of Good Sound told the alumni the story of her stores and collections. She also played a Chinese old song from her treasured 1910’s gramophone. The artist’s sultry voice took us back to the old times. And it marked the perfect ending to the afternoon.

Until the next time, wish all of you work life balance in 2022 !
