Invest in people and develop talent to their fullest potential
With Baxter’s unique market position and outstanding corporate culture, we are able to attract the top talent to work with us. Our task is to continuously motivate and develop these high-achievers. Our development framework is simple and practical: 10% training, 20% coaching/feedback, and 70% working experience. Not only do we provide needs-based training opportunities, but also, focus more on the roles of managers, who are equipped with the mindset and skills to provide constant feedback, guidance and support to the employees for their development through the A.C.E (Align, Check-in monthly and Execute) model.
We take employee engagement seriously, as we know that truly engaged employees can bring a tremendous value to our organization and business. We have open channels to listen to our employees for their candid and constructive feedback. We have implemented a series of local initiatives through the five task-force teams over the last couple of years. Take M.I.B (Mission in Baxter) as an example. The team launched a series of new initiatives such as sharing patient stories and paying home visits to patients, so that everyone at Baxter can truly feel the purpose of what we do “to save & sustain lives”.
Reward and recognition is an integral part of our talent strategy. In addition to the annual excellence awards where we recognize the excellent performance, Baxter also provides platforms such as the Baxter Recognition program where our employees can extend their appreciation to anyone at any time, and the Bravo Award that honors those with an exceptional contribution on special occasions. Provide a Friendly Working Environment to maximize flexibility and drive collaboration
