Learning & Development Strategy Shangri-La North America / EMEA 2018 – 2019

WELCOME

Dear General Managers, Dirs. of Human Resources and leaders,

Warm greetings from SLIM Dubai.

On behalf of the L&D team, I am most pleased to share with you the outcomes from our recent Annual L&D Get Together in which we designed the strategy that we will implement in 2019 across our hotels in the region; and in alignment with our Global L&D plan.

The purpose of this document is to facilitate all the necessary information in two parts:

1. An overview of our 2018 – 2019 L&D Regional Strategy 2. The role of our L&D leaders in the hotels

Further to this, in November we will be rolling out the catalogue of programmes that will be available in 2019 for the hotels to benefit from them.

We hope that you found our L&D performance beneficial in 2018, and we are excited to move to our next chapter: pioneering transformational learning experiences together.

Always at your service,

L&D Team Daniel Agudelo, Regional Dir. of L&D Shangri-La North America / EMEA.
