LESSON LEARNED
 Always believe people are the most important asset, and
capital comes second.
 It is not necessary to find the “best” talent but the talent
that best fits your company.
 Find and groom the talent inside your company rather
than keep searching for talent from outside. The best
talent is home-groomed people who fit our company
culture. It always takes at least three years before
people become fully immersed into our company culture
 Believe in the potential of talent. There is no “smartest”
talent. With the right environment and system, anyone
can be groomed.
