Since HG was formed in 2020, more than 800 professionals have completed training at the HG Academy, which equips our craftspeople with a comprehensive set of skills, from achieving pricing excellence and project management skills, to learning about the different disciplines and embracing the culture.
HG’s apprenticeship programme shows our commitment to developing talent within our ranks – with a long-term goal of 12% of our workforce comprising of apprentices, we're investing in the next generation of skilled professionals.
Through initiatives like the "Greenhouse Program," launched in 2023, we’re nurturing emerging talent, equipping them with the skills and knowledge to thrive in leadership roles and play a central role in successions.
Furthermore, we have developed a comprehensive General Manager's Toolkit. This toolkit, along with targeted training, is being offered to the General Managers after joining. The toolkit includes support in the areas of project management, contractual guidelines, standardized contracts, sales support, pricing tools, centralised handling of regulatory documentation and requirements, resource-sharing and joint purchasing agreements.
And, naturally, we all share sustainability objectives and tools.
“79 percent employees perceive HG’s network and peer-to-peer collaboration as the most important benefit of joining HG and 47 percent perceive sharing of best practices as the most important. With an Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) of 32, well above the industry average of 11, we've cultivated a workforce that's not only engaged but also committed to our shared success.”
