Recognized for its Innovative Achievement in Human Resources, AEV continues to transform the future of work through modern technology made to attract, optimize, and retain talent, anchored on its brand promise and purpose of driving change for a better world.
“We are incredibly proud to receive this recognition for our innovative achievements in human resources. At AEV, we believe that our people are our greatest asset, and investing in their development and well-being is crucial to our success as a Group,” said AEV Vice President for Corporate Human Resources Zabs Luna Tan-Chong.
The Aboitiz Group banks on constructive and disruptive leadership to steer the wheel as it undergoes its Great Transformation to become the Philippines’ first Techglomerate, driven by technology and a renewed entrepreneurial mindset.
“The 10th edition of the Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards drew many remarkable nominations. The organizations that won this year have demonstrated that they are committed to being innovative, and we applaud them for their perseverance and creativity,” said Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller.
CHRis bot, AEV’s improved chatbot, for one, was borne out of the Super Ditch Day (SDD) and Aboitiz Digital Entrepreneurial and Agile Innovation (ADEA) initiatives, which give team members and leaders the power to communicate suggestions and ideas to implement across the board.
Designed to provide HR information round the clock, CHRis bot also has a social listening and engagement feature that enables it to do regular pulse checks on topics such as employee experience and engagement, performance management, and GT activities.
