MaxXimise Your Potential

As a Manulife employee, you have unlimited opportunities. Everyone can make a difference, working with great colleagues who help them succeed in a collaborative and flexible environment.

We are aware that people are the core value as well as bring sustainable development to each business. Because of that, we always encourage each of our employees to improve their own skills to become a better version of themselves.

In 2021, we have fundamentally changed our learning model from a local focus to a globally integrated enterprise learning model, powered by technological change. Our new learning strategy is to empower employees to learn and grow to fulfill their career aspirations, while taking advantage of online learning tools and programs. The new Learning Strategy focuses on three pillars: personal and leadership, future focus, and functional skills.

We demonstrated a strong pandemic response through our Transformational Learning Center by implementing e-Learning modules, transforming learning session into online versions, or conducting them remotely in virtual classrooms. With innovations like these, in 2021 we have achieved impressive results: 84% of accounts were activated on LinkedIn Learning and more than 11,000 courses have been completed across learning tools and platforms.

Our Success Profile and My Career tools also helped set development goals for employees to navigate their career. Furthermore, we were the first within the Manulife group to roll out Individual Development Plan to all staff as a way for employees to determine short and long-term career goals and track their progress.

Making every day better for employees

Interaction is not based on a single change or initiative. It comes from many small changes that make up a larger whole. Our ambition is to build a culture where engagement is part of the way we work to enable and empower us to help us make each day better. We're proud of what we've achieved in employee engagement scores, achieving #1 across Asia.

Here in Vietnam we build a supportive, diverse and promoted workplace. That's why we created the Employee Engagement Action Committee (EEC). Over the past two years, when the pandemic has made us more and more aware of the importance of creating a supportive environment. That led us to make improvements in the EEAC by dividing it into specialized operational groups, focusing on: recognition that also helps build a united team and supportive team.
