• New move balances TM assignments under numerous and overlapping activities to support company programs
• Related programs and initiatives were grouped together to improve collaboration, integration, and standardization

Pilmico’s value-driven company culture has been strengthened further with its Integrated Task Force teams, a move to balance employee assignments under numerous and overlapping activities.

Originally, one team member was assigned as department representative to any of 11 task force teams. These teams were responsible for implementing activities under a particular company program. The situation had become a challenge when a TM was usually a member of multiple task forces at the same time, which led to fatigue from all the work on top of their day-to-day deliverables.

With the launch of the Integrated Task Force last March, related programs and initiatives were grouped together to improve collaboration, integration, and standardization. Anchored under a single umbrella, the 11 Task Force teams were trimmed down to four Main Task Force teams, each representing the Aboitiz core values of Integrity, Teamwork, Innovation, and Responsibility.

A weeklong recruitment period was also held across all sites to invite team members to join a particular Task Force of their interest. Following this, Task Force team leads deliberated, finalized, and formally announced their rosters.

The opening meetings and boot camps are now ongoing as teams get to know one another, understand their roles and responsibilities, and discover how they, through their respective Task Force, can add value to themselves and to the organization.
