A Challenging Environment |
As an internationally successful electronic company, Aplab expects top performance from its management. We want to achieve significant long-term growth in our core businesses. We plan to accomplish this by continuing to expand in our key products in which we hold leading market positions and by opening up new markets. We also want to safeguard our cost leadership by constantly increasing productivity across the company. |

Our Employees the Key to Our Success |
Our ability to be successful as a company largely comes down to the skills and motivation of our employees. However, a culture in which employees can maximize their potential and improve their performance demands excellent leadership. For this reason it is just as important for Aplab to prepare the future generation of leaders for their work as it is to find new customers, develop new products or advance technologies. |

| Leadership Development at Aplab |
Aplab top management views leadership development as a key management responsibility and invests a significant amount of time and energy to selecting and developing future leaders. |
 |
Aplab not only expects its leaders to be result-oriented, set ambitious goals, develop employees and give constructive feedback; it also expects them to successfully work across borders, develop visions and think and plan long-term in a complex, international environment. Thus Aplab leadership development is characterized by development across regions, functions and divisions. As they plan their careers, future leaders should include international experience within different functions and departments of the company. There is a focus on "on-the-job" training, accompanied by regular feedback and coaching. |
When job openings are filled, the company chooses the best qualified candidate with a focus on the long-term development goals for the individual as well as the company. |
We have a strong company focus on developing our future leaders, however the development of all of our employees is also important. Our leaders and managers encourage employee development at all levels by fostering an environment in which our employees understand that their development is their responsibility. Each individual is expected to creatively achieve strong results, constantly strive for top performance and "raise the bar", inspire co-workers and communicate personal career goals. |
