Annual Report 2020

78 Transport International Holdings Limited 2020 Annual Report Sustainability Report I always have a keen interest in public transport affairs. I obtained a bachelor’s degree in sociology and a master degree in management in the United Kingdom. When I lived there, I came to learn more about the operation of local bus companies, which later helped me bring new ideas to KMB. After joining the company, I had the opportunity to understand the operations of different departments. I realised that bus operations rely on the cooperation and team spirit of all departments. The new technique and professional knowledge learnt also broadened my horizons. Jethro Chow, Management Trainee Grooming Talents for the Future Nurture Management Leaders ： Management Trainee Programme To nurture professional talents, KMB has developed the Management Trainee Programme and the Engineering Graduate Programme. The Management Trainee Programme provides a comprehensive platform for young employees, allowing them to rotate across major departments during a three- year training period. Besides giving a better understanding of the franchised bus industry, the trainees will be equipped with techniques and knowledge in different aspects, such as personnel management, law and corporate communications, as well as accumulated practical working experience to develop into multi-talented management. During the period, on-the-job training and guidance from supervisory management will enable the trainee to unleash their full potential and take on a managerial position in the future.
