Message from Dr Victor Lee

Dr Victor Lee
Executive Director
The Hong Kong Management Association
Building a culture of wellness and health has become an increasingly important priority for many organizations as happy
and healthy employees are more engaged, and they work more effectively, creatively and collaboratively. Furthermore,
they will feel more comfortable at dealing with stress, solving problems and making decisions, hence, contributing to
productivity and competitiveness of the organization.
To promote best practices in training and development as well as recognize outstanding trainers, The Hong Kong
Management Association has established the Award for Excellence in Training and Development since 1990. With close to
30 years of establishment, the Award has become an annual highlight, which allows the HR community not only to learn
from the best training and people development practices of various organizations, but also to gain first-hand knowledge
and trends of the industry.
On behalf of the Association, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to members of the Panel of Adjudicators and
the Board of Examiners, who have devoted much of their invaluable time and experience to help select the Award winners.
In particular, I would like to extend my most sincere thanks to Mr Anthony Rushton, Chairman, and all members of the
Organizing Committee, for their tremendous efforts in making this Award a great success. My heartfelt appreciation also
goes to the Lead Sponsors, Main Sponsors, Sponsors, Media Sponsors, Digital Media Sponsor, People Development Sponsor
and Wifi Sponsor for their generous support.
Finally, I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to Mr Frank Koo, Head of Asia, Talent & Learning Solutions, LinkedIn for
being the Keynote Speaker of the Final Presentation Seminar.
