This will help to ensure a long term talent and leadership pipeline in Operations. Participants are rotated to various departments to expose them to different operational, engineering and management processes. This will help program participants develop a holistic view of plant operations and build important people relationships before spending their final rotation at the destination function.

Note: The Young Engineers program is not meant for purposes of resource 3 back-filling or short term resourcing. It is an investment to develop talent for future growth and long term business sustainability.

Management Support
Each country Executive Committee needs to understand the role of the YEP in relation to the overall succession planning and talent development strategy. The aim is to give selected young people a solid foundation which when followed by years of suitable experience delivers the senior industrial managers of the future. The country Industrial directors need to appreciate that, through the YEP, we are creating an Asian pool of technical talent that can be deployed across Asia to meet the regions business expansion needs. The budget for this program needs to be clearly defined for each year by each industrial plant: salaries; costs of being assigned away from the base plant during module 4.
