​Vietnam, 01/10/2021. Today, ManpowerGroup Vietnam partnered with the American Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (AmCham) to organize the webinar “Building a Resilient Organization with a Coaching Culture”. The event is aimed to share the importance of coaching culture in an organization and how it can support them in building resilience to be successful in the pandemic. Experienced speakers, who are leading experts in human resources management, coaching and psychological consulting, and Ms. Linh Thai, CEO/ Founder, TVL Group discussed the stories of coaching implementation and building resilience for employees in their organizations. The webinar saw the participation of over 100 business leaders and HR practitioners working in various sectors. According to the “Talent Shortage Survey 2020” by ManpowerGroup, 93% of people have seen their working life transform because of Covid-19. Gallup’s “State of the Global Workplace 2021”, carried out in 116 countries and areas, also reveals that Southeast Asia has the highest regional percentage of people who lost pay due to the coronavirus situation, second-highest regional percentage of people who worked fewer hours, and second-highest regional percentage of people who lost a job or business. In terms of emotion, 33% of Vietnamese regularly experienced stress, and the country was ranked 6th among 9 countries in the region. “Resilience is the ability to recover from adversity, adapt and thrive”, shared Mr. Bao Nguyen, Leadership & Team Coach, ManpowerGroup Vietnam. The resilience skills of a person are influenced by two groups of factors, namely uncontrollable and controllable ones. The expert made it clear that coaching is a useful skill for individuals to learn to manage their feelings, thoughts, and actions. It is also among the top 10 important soft skills in search by global employers according to ManpowerGroup. (*) Dr. Tran Huu Duc (PhD), Psychotherapist said: “Because of the local culture, Vietnamese people enjoy socializing and being in a large community. This is also one of the catalysts to restore their energy and emotional intelligence. The recent restrictions and social distancing rules due to the pandemic, however, have made many confused, and thus have no idea of how to balance their emotions.” According to a survey shared by Dr. Tran Huu Duc, by September 2021, about 80% Vietnamese get stressed out frequently as compared to the ratio of pre-Covid-19 at only 15%. ​Discussing the ‘How’ to implement coaching effectively, Ms. Ellie Huong Bui, HRBP Director, Hitachi Vantara Vietnam & Japan shared “The leaders play an increasingly important role in the coaching journey, particularly during the pandemic. They need to fuel their employees with inspiration and peaceful energy, make them feel secure and as a result, be open to learning and change.” In addition, the panelists shared specific tactics that HR practitioners can apply in building a strong coaching culture as well as a resilient organization during and after the pandemic.

​Vietnam, 27/09/2021. ManpowerGroup and MxD USA recently released the research “The Future Factory: Mapping The Skills That Will Power Manufacturing”. The workforce analysis describes the impacts of the digital transformation on the manufacturing sector and highlights the roles of innovation culture and other leadership skills to the business transformation’s success. Digital transformation with breakthroughs in advanced technology is taking place in every sector globally, including the manufacturing. As the vanguard of the digital transformation, the industry’s transition to full digitization is already well underway and accelerating daily. In tandem with that process, new roles appear with advanced digital skills demanded while others become obsolete. According to the research, nearly 50% of all roles in manufacturing will need to change within the next three-to-five years as the industry transitions to become fully digital. Since the early days of its history, Manufacturing has undergone and evolved through four technical generations – Generations Zero to Three. Each generation is aligned to different eras of manufacturing tools, technologies and work. Today we are on the cusp of the third generation, characterized by the transformational power of radical improvements in connected systems and machine learning, and we expect to be fully immersed in Gen Three by 2020. The groundbreaking workforce analysis identifies 165 new and evolving roles across 7 areas of technical expertise in manufacturing, including: Digital Manufacturing, Digital Thread, Digital Enterprise, Digital Product, Digital Design, Supply Network, and Omni. The impact of transformation differs for each domain with the greatest shift occurring in the Digital Manufacturing – 28% of the 165 new or evolved roles are in this domain. Within the seven domains above, specific roles can be mapped by the impact they make on the organization and the way they connect to each other. “In order to develop the talent they need to remain competitive, manufacturing companies need new approaches for training, that is, to up-skill and re-skill people at speed and at scale. It is now or never”, said Le Thi Kim, Head of Staffing and Outsourcing Services, North, ManpowerGroup Vietnam. From the researchers’ findings, the most effective skills development and retention are achieved through certification programs of six months or less or on-the-job training. The manufacturing’s technological transformation also proposes a need for leadership roles to change. Managers and leaders should follow the 80/20 rules to stay relevant and competitive. While foundational leadership skills keep playing an integral part, effective leaders must also nurture the additional 20 percent – an innovation culture & risk management, learnability, adaptability, and optimizing opportunities. The key to catching the shift of digital transformation and skills revolution in manufacturing is a connected workforce strategy at the soonest. Besides investing in internal talent via development program, helping people transit to new roles when necessary, employers should cultivate and connect communities of talent beyond the organization, especially going to the labor market or workforce solutions providers to attract the talent that can’t be built in-house.Particularly, based on ManpowerGroup’s workforce analysis of 165 new and evolving roles across seven “domains” of technical expertise, manufacturing organizations can identify future talent needs in short, medium and long term. About the researchThe groundbreaking workforce analysis was jointly developed by ManpowerGroup and MxD (formerly the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute) with the purpose to find practical solutions to the skills shortage and ensure up to 2 million new manufacturing jobs in the U.S. do not go unfilled. ManpowerGroup and MxD convened more than 30 academic, government and industry partners including Siemens, Microsoft, Caterpillar and General Electric to create an industry-recognized taxonomy that defines digital manufacturing roles of the future, serving as a practical toolkit for manufacturing organizations.

​Vietnam, 18th March 2021 – According to “What Vietnamese Workers Want in the New Normal” survey deployed on November and December 2020 with 463 participants, COVID-19 should be a catalyst for a new future of work, which is flexible, diverse and wellbeing-oriented. The survey highlights workers’ well-being needs, their expectations, future of work insights and how the new normal can be made better for everyone. According to ManpowerGroup’s research on “What Workers Want”, around 93% of workers around the world have experienced some type of workplace closure measure in place. However, because of the Government’s effective actions in containing the virus, Vietnam business outlook has turned positive with only 3.5% of respondents that reported that their work had been severely impacted by the pandemic. Overall, the health impacts of COVID-19 are proved to disproportionately harm the elderly, but it is millennials who are the most vulnerable to the economic impacts of the pandemic. When asked about returning to work, a large number of Vietnamese workers felt positive going back to the workplace (66% of survey participants) while only 19% had negative responses. With the new waves of community transmission in late 2020, a proportion of workforce consider the return to workplace as an increased risk, especially working parents. The survey also shows that over one fifth (more than 21%) of the working parents participating in the survey felt negative and disinterested in returning to work. In these unpredictable times, Vietnamese workers are united in what they want to prioritize for the future – staying healthy, to learn and develop new skill sets, keep their job and bring more balance between work and life. In reference to benefits of being in the workplace, the respondents highly value opportunities for collaboration, productivity and efficiency improvement as well as appreciate the office as a way of separating work from home. However, there is still a proportion of respondents who prefer flexibly (in terms of location and schedule) or to work remotely full time. One of the top priorities of Vietnamese workers at work, almost 78% respondents, placed significance on learning and career coaching. Ms. Nguyen Thanh Huong, Country HR Manager, ManpowerGroup Vietnam shared, “It is predicted that the pandemic will last longer than expected, and with the largest reallocation of skills worldwide. Now is the time for employees to hone in-demand skills and establish career conversations with employers on technical skills development, and learning opportunities for their career development, to stay employable in the new normal.” Amidst current uncertainties, employability matters to workers and 72% of them say that simply keeping their job is the most important priority. In short, work security and well-being have been identified as the most crucial factors that both Vietnamese workers in general and working parents in particular would like to focus in the new normal. ​About ManpowerGroup ManpowerGroup® (NYSE: MAN), the leading global workforce solutions company, helps organizations transform in a fast-changing world of work by sourcing, assessing, developing and managing the talent that enables them to win.

​Vietnam, 23/02/2021. According to the latest ManpowerGroup Vietnam’s 2021 Employment Outlook survey, employers in various industries are expecting the hiring intentions to recover and improve in the first half of 2021, despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was conducted with 442 representatives in HR and Talent Acquisition roles from 16 different industries. At the time of the survey, while 36.4% reported that their businesses were slightly impacted by the pandemic, nearly 50% said they still operated normally under the impact of the crisis. However, given the fact that Vietnam recorded another wave of community transmission in late January 2021, and due to the pandemic complexity across health and socio–economic aspects, businesses, notably small and medium ones, are to be well prepared for challenges ahead. According to the General Statistics Office (GSO)1, Vietnam is among several ASEAN economies to have attained positive growth with GDP of 2.9% in 2020, despite complicated and swift evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic around the world. Manufacturing & Processing is likely to grow stronger in the long term playing a key role in leading the local economy growth by contributing 1.25% to the economy. Positive economic growth would likely boost confidence for employers to recruit more in the future. Hiring sentiments strengthened significantly when compared with the second half of 2020. Up to 56% of surveyed employers anticipated an increase in their employment and 37% said they would maintain the number of headcounts. Only 6.6% of respondents announced to trim hiring activities. Ms. Le Thi Kim, Head of Staffing & Outsourcing, North, ManpowerGroup Vietnam shared “Vietnam has many advantages to attract foreign investment in many areas thanks to the abundant young workforce, ready to meet the diverse needs of employers. Currently, we have received numerous recruitment orders from domestic and foreign enterprises, especially in Manufacturing & Processing such as electronic components assembly, manufacturing and assembling cars, motorcycles, packaging, warehouse & transportation etc." According to the survey, the employment outlook is very positive with up to 66% of the employers expecting their hiring plans to increase within the next three months, followed by 22% foreseeing that within the next six months. Strongest recruitment plans for the next three to six months were reported in Manufacturing & Processing, Construction, Wholesales, Retail and Trading, Transport and Logistics. Construction sector also kicked back thanks to the economic growth, accounting for 19% of those planning to hire in the first half of 2021, similar to that of Manufacturing & Processing. Ms. Nguyen Thu Trang, Country Head of Permanent Recruitment, Executive Search and Consulting Services, ManpowerGroup Vietnam, shared “Thanks to the effective control measurements and the strong anti-epidemic compliance of the Vietnamese people, the local economy is showing signs of positive recovery. In addition, foreign investment continues to flow into Vietnam, creating more business and job opportunities in the country. From our observation, the labor market is seeing a strong increase in demand for positions that require digital-related skills such as Business Analysts, Digital Transformation, Cybersecurity, Fintech, Software Engineer, etc.” In tandem with the positive hiring outlook, when asked what human resources services they plan to use from workforce solutions providers, 31% of the employers choose Permanent Recruitment & Executive Search services, closely followed by 30% opting for Outsourcing services. Payroll and Recruitment Processing Outsourcing (RPO) services were picked by about 13% and 11% respondents respectively.

​MILWAUKEE, Jan. 25, 2020 – The COVID-19 pandemic has led companies to rapidly accelerate digitization plans, according to new ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) research released this week at World Economic Forum’s #DavosAgenda. The survey of 26,000+ employers in more than 25 countries finds those companies that are digitizing most are creating the most jobs. Organizations are accelerating their digitization as a result of the pandemic – 38% are speeding up, while just 17% have put plans on hold. At the same time, more jobs are being created than destroyed – 86% of employers that are digitizing plan to increase or maintain their headcount, compared to just 11% of employers who plan to reduce or hold their automation plans“Our research reinforces that digital transformation is occurring at an unprecedented pace – creating jobs and driving sweeping change with the potential to improve people’s lives and create a more connected world.” Said Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chairman & CEO. “Today tech breakthroughs are driving mass vaccination programs, workforce transformation and flexibility, plus a call for better work-life blend, more upskilling and greater autonomy over how, when and where work gets done. One year into the pandemic though, we are seeing the emergence of a K-shaped recovery. Some industries and people are bouncing back faster and better – those in growth sectors and those with high demand skills – while others are at risk of falling further behind. Helping people to pre-skill, upskill and reskill for in-demand roles in this Skills Revolution remains the defining challenge of this decade. At the #DavosAgenda this week we look forward to identifying shared solutions and accelerating action to enable everyone to unleash their full human potential and have a more equitable share of the prosperity.”Key Findings: The impact of the pandemic on digitization differs significantly around the world: Employers in Germany, Austria, Japan, and Italy report automation has accelerated most as the result of COVID-19 while those in the U.S., France and the U.K. are least likely to have sped up digitization. Larger organizations are digitizing and hiring most: Conversely, smaller organizations have been most impacted by the pandemic and are more likely to have put digitization plans on hold and reduced hiring plans.HR bucks its own trend as it accelerates as business priority: Companies are realizing HR is critical in helping people reskill and redeploy as digitization accelerates. Organizations that are automating most are also planning significant increases in HR headcount (net increase of +15%). Soft skill training needs to play catch up: Soft skills including resilience, collaboration, creativity and leadership are in increasing demand yet only one in five employers (19%) are investing in upskilling programs focusing on soft skills. Training is trending shorter too. Employers know people want more applicable, bite-size, curated content that is relevant to specific roles and functions.COVID-19 has shifted in HR priorities for the long-term: HR leaders see employee health and wellbeing as the most important priority, with 63% set to put it top of their agenda for 2021 and beyond. When skills needs are changing faster than ever, organizations need refreshed talent and workforce development strategies to attract, develop, engage and retain the best talent. Skills Revolution Reboot provides innovative solutions for the Skills Revolution and highlights ManpowerGroup’s offerings: SkillsInSight™: ManpowerGroup’s proprietary assessment to help people identify their strengths and work preferences and help organizations to predict an individual’s likely fit for the role. MyPath: helps progress talent from one role to the next, from declining industries to growth sectors, closing the skills gap, improving people’s employability and helping to address the economic and social impact of the pandemic.

Businesses need to adjust their strategies and policies to attract and retain talent in this uncertainty. Specifically, businesses need to develop flexible strategies for talent management, prioritize necessary tasks, identifying and communicating responsibility to stakeholders”Now and more than ever, business leaders need to proactively establish flexible and responsive principles to steer their business through the crisis with safety and success. This is also the time to reconsider how people work, are recognized and rewarded. With employees at the center, organizations should turn into well-being experts, and even education advisers. Mr. Trinh Dinh Minhrepresenting PYS Travel alsoagreed that “In order to overcome the crisis, leadership role as well as corporate culture are key factors to help businesses be resilient in uncertain times.”(*) Vietnam Employment Outlook Survey - Second Half of 2020 About ManpowerGroupManpowerGroup® (NYSE: MAN), the leading global workforce solutions company, helps organizations transform in a fast-changing world of work by sourcing, assessing, developing and managing the talent that enables them to win.

​Ho Chi Minh City, 9th December 2020 – Today, ManpowerGroup Vietnam partnered with Vietnam Human Resources Association (VNHR) to organize “From Crisis to Prosperity” webinar. The online event is aimed at sharing HR’s role in helping organizations overcome the health, economic and social crisis amidst the pandemic. Experienced speakers from leading Staffing and HR Consulting service (ManpowerGroup Vietnam), international Food & Beverage company (Nestle Vietnam) and leading Insurance and Hospitality group (Sovico) also shared success stories on overcoming the crisis in their respective industries.The latest research from ManpowerGroup, “The Future for Workers, by Workers” revealed that a small proportion of the population is infected by COVID-19, but almost all (93%) will be impacted.

ManpowerGroup Vietnam’s latest survey also revealed that more than 27% of employers were severely affected and nearly 7% were hardest hit, causing them to face possible closures (*).Against this setting, HR’s role has become more critical than ever in helping companies navigate through this crisis. HR leaders have turned into well-being experts and education advisers to help people stay employed and safe. Taking into consideration the speed, scale and other major impacts that are likely to last long term by this pandemic, now, more than ever before, business leaders need to know what to do and how to adapt to the changes. Businesses must be clear on what decisions need to be made to maintain their operations, to ensure minimal damages, if any, for their stakeholders.Ms. Nguyen Thanh Huong, Country HR Manager, ManpowerGroup Vietnam, shared: “Given the impact of COVID-19, HR leaders need to look at their role as well-being experts in their organization, apart from traditional roles. Especially, they need to understand working parents’ needs, i.e. what matters most to them at the Workplace, at Home and in the Future. Now is the time to rethink the way people work, are recognized and rewarded with parents’ front and center, particularly for women.”Right now, business leaders need to proactively establish agile principles and respond faster to steer safely and be successful. Ms. Truong Bich Dao, Human Resources Director, Nestlé Vietnam, agreed that every business faces the risks of human resources disruption, especially in the most heavily impacted industries. However, HR leaders should not just handle this crisis on where it impacts the most, but they should also strive to work on the opportunities that can be created to support their business be more successful.(*) Vietnam Employment Outlook Survey conducted in the Second Half 2020About ManpowerGroupManpowerGroup® (NYSE: MAN), the leading global workforce solutions company, helps organizations transform in a fast-changing world of work by sourcing, assessing, developing and managing the talent that enables them to win.

​Ho Chi Minh City, 17th November 2020 – Today, ManpowerGroup Vietnam partnered with American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) to organize a hybrid virtual event titled “Unleashing New Waves of Women Leaders”. The attendants got to know why organizations should better promote female leaders and identified the obstacles in closing the gender gaps. They also discussed programs to overcome gender bias for better organizational performance.Today, women make up more than 50% of the global workforce, but less than 25% of women have senior leadership roles. Commenting on this reality, Ms. Uyen Ho, Director, Global Public Affairs, Intel Products Vietnam & Malaysia shared that organizations and companies should know why they need to promote female leaders, what challenges await and how to help women realize their fullest potential as they deserve equal opportunities with men. Ms Linh Thai, Investor, Mentor and Mother, highlighted that it’s now time for leaders to see the obstacles and take proper actions to overcome the gender barriers, which will help improve the organizational performance.There are even more obstacles now because of COVID-19 pandemic. The latest research “The Future for Workers, by Workers” by ManpowerGroup reveals that women are impacted on a longer term by the economic and social crisis than men. They are more likely to be furloughed, more concerned about going back to the workplace and over-represented in sectors most impacted by COVID-19.Ms. Carine Rolland, People & Culture Director, Asia Pacific & Middle East, ManpowerGroup said: “Leaders should understand women’s needs to avoid assumptions and prevent unconscious biases while deploying flexible working and policies that help women stay safe and unleash their fullest potential.” She also highlighted that the first step to overcoming these biases is to acknowledge that we have them. Challenging our own assumptions means being aware of our biases and course-correcting for them.Among the solutions for more women in leadership, leaders should hire more, promote more, and lose less. And instead of saying things like: “she doesn’t have the experience,” we need to ask: “what do we need to make it work?” and only then can we see ways around these cultural stumbling blocks. Last but not least, it’s so critical for male leaders to champion this issue, Ms Carine Rolland added.About ManpowerGroupManpowerGroup® (NYSE: MAN), the leading global workforce solutions company, helps organizations transform in a fast-changing world of work by sourcing, assessing, developing and managing the talent that enables them to win.
