KUALA LUMPUR (March 11): SkyWorld Development Bhd has bagged the Best Employers 2023 Award by Kincentric, according to a press statement on March 8. It has won the Best Employers Award for the fifth time.

Through its Best Employers Award, Kincentric — a Spencer Stuart company — recognises and celebrates leading organisations worldwide, judging them based on objective employee opinion measurements.

SkyWorld Development CEO Lee Chee Seng said in the statement: “To be named Malaysia’s best company to work for for the fifth time by Kincentric further validates our core values; ‘Dare to Lead’, ‘Let’s Talk’, and ‘Get it Done’. All three govern SkyWorld’s culture that guides everyone moving towards the same direction.

“We also believe in the saying, ‘take care of your people and your people will take care of the business’, therefore I would like to share this award with all ‘SkyRians’ who have always upheld our core values and supported our initiatives."

The developer attributes this success to its holistic on-boarding culture, industry best practice training program, exclusive employee privileges, and succession grooming initiatives.

The statement further explained that the company’s on-boarding program takes employees through an experiential orientation with explanations of its core values, a tour of its award-winning developments and a buddy system to acclimatize further and assist new joiners with SkyWorld’s company culture.

Employees also get to experience and enjoy the benefits of any event, programme or product before it is launched to the public. At the same time, the company will internally nurture a capable talent pipeline to meet its long-term strategic business needs.
