According to Yonhap News,
(SEOUL=Yonhap News) On November 8, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) announced it was included in Great Place to Work (GPTW) Korea’s list of the “100 Best Companies to Work For in Korea” for the seventh year in a row.
KOTRA’s President and CEO Kwon Pyung-oh was selected as a “Respected CEO.”
GPTW is an institute established in New York in 1981, and annually selects 100 best companies to work for throughout 60 countries around the world.
KOTRA explained that Kwon, since his inauguration in April, has been working to strengthen communication, simplify report-writing, streamline the decision-making process, and avoid excessive formality to establish a corporate culture where employees can focus all of their capabilities into their tasks.
According to KOTRA, its continued efforts to break down hierarchical barriers between executives and staff members, and to change the organizational structure into a more rational model greatly contributed to it being selected as one of the best companies to work for once again this year.
