In the first Thursday Talk, CEO Chang introduced himself and answered the questions from employees. Immediately after taking office, CEO Chang posted his inaugural address on the Intranet, asking employees to freely leave any wishes and questions about him. In response, Samsung Electro-Mechanics conducted an anonymous survey, "Ask CEO Chang Duckhyun anything!", and employees left more than 1,000 honest questions.
CEO Chang communicated with the employees by honestly answering a wide range of questions, from sensitive questions such as incentives, welfare, and benefits, to his hobbies, personal strengths, and Samsung Electro-Mechanics' future that he envisions in three years.
In particular, he mentioned that surfing is one of his hobbies and he would treat employees who bump into him at a beach next summer, drawing applause from the employees.
As his favorite words, CEO Chang picked "tech" and "future," emphasizing that “the future of Samsung Electro-Mechanics should be a tech company.” “With a roadmap for future technology, we must become a top-class components company with the technology that surpasses competitors and leads the future and by internalizing core parts. Let's grow into the No. 1 tech company with unrivaled technology. Regardless of position or field, I respect the top experts in each sector. Let's all become experts in our core capabilities," added the CEO.
During the first Thursday Talk that recorded high views, employees left various comments and questions in the chat window.
With comments such as "I could feel his sincerity from the way he provided honest answers to even sensitive questions," "I liked his honest and straightforward leadership,” and “I could tell that he has deeply thought about the vision and direction of Samsung Electro-Mechanics,” the employees expressed high expectations for the new CEO's management based on open and sincere communication.
