The Sun Moon Lake Silks Place Hot Spring Hotel has been honored with the Ministry of Labor’s 2017 National Talent Development Award. This marks yet another milestone in the systematic development of talent for the Yunglo Tourism Group, following last year’s achievement of the highest honor — the Gold Award in the Talent Quality Management System (TTQS), as well as being the first in the industry to receive the CommonWealth CSR Corporate Citizenship Award.

Sheng Zhiren, Chairman of Silks Place International, upholds a strong commitment to innovation and culture and the arts, and actively promotes talent development programs. Each month, a variety of courses are arranged along with incentive mechanisms, offering suitable training for every employee based on their department and rank. Examples include cross-disciplinary learning for reserve managers, Carnegie training for mid-to-senior level executives, and in-house courses such as Japanese and British-style butler training under the “Silks Butler Program” to nurture outstanding talent. For employees with irregular shifts, they can access the 24-hour online academy for self-study. The e-learning courses are not constrained by time or location, making learning more convenient.

Chen Huici, General Manager of Silks Place Hot Spring Hotel, stated that encouraging colleagues to enhance their professional skills, unleash creativity, strengthen teamwork, and foster a positive and joyful workplace atmosphere that supports work-life balance is precisely the culture and spirit of Silks Place.

Additionally, new services introduced this year such as blind massage therapy, employee stress relief courses, and psychological counseling services provided by “Silks Teachers” all help employees relieve physical and mental stress amid their busy schedules.

Chen Huici said that Silks Place will continue to cultivate hospitality talent in the future, provide refined travel and dining services, and advance towards becoming a happy enterprise. Relevant job vacancies are now open, and professionals passionate about the culinary and hospitality industries are welcome to join.
