FGV Annual Report 2015

146 Felda Global Ventures Holdings Berhad Annual Integrated Report 2015 Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control • Learning Areas Framework In addition to shared responsibilities, it is imperative that all parties know what needs to be developed, when and to which group of people. A Learning Areas Framework allows all parties to understand the expectations of development. The Learning Areas are similar. However, the emphasis is different between a young executive new to the job force, as compared to the Top Leadership. A young executive would require emphasis on Functional capabilities as they need to demonstrate the ability to do the job they are assigned to. For Top Leadership, Functional Capability is sufficient to be at awareness level. Each of the Learning Areas will have separate learning modules to meet the needs of each targeted audience. To ensure enculturation of FGV’s Culture, all learning modules will incorporate FGV’s values of P.R.I.D.E.
