Shanghai - SHL furthers its commitment to the Chinese market with additional investment
September 1, 2011
Shanghai - SHL is pleased to announce that its wholly owned business unit, SHL China Ltd, has expanded the in-country business functions supported directly out of its Shanghai office. SHL is now also able to offer its products and services in RMB to the China market via its experienced sales and consultancy team.
Additionally, SHL has added expertise to its sales operation with the recent appointment of Fu Quan, who has joined the company as VP Sales China. Fu Quan has an extensive sales leadership background, joining SHL from the HR consultancy Mercer, where he spent seven years helping establish and build the China business. Most recently he has implemented large system/IT solutions in major organisations, such as General Motors and Huawei. Before Mercer Fu Quan worked at Oracle, leading HR solutions sales teams across the region.
“These latest changes confirm SHL’s commitment to the Chinese market as well as give our organisation an even stronger platform from which to serve our customers on the ground in China, a strategic market for SHL, “commented David Leigh, CEO at SHL.
Stuart Hedley, vice president professional services, Asia Pacific, added: “Our continued focus on putting the customer first is evident through the recruitment of a dedicated sales VP and three new, local consultants. These new appointments will build upon the existing strength of the SHL China team by adding breadth and depth of experience, knowledge and, most importantly, applicability to the local market. I’m excited about the prospect of working with Fu to enhance further our solution offerings, support the Chinese market and promote the concept and importance of ‘People Intelligence.”
‘People Intelligence’ is defined by SHL as the output from the assessment of individual competencies, performance and other relevant characteristics to provide quantifiable data to assist an organisation in its talent management decision making. Organisations must make talent management decisions, such as who to hire, which employees to develop and promote into leadership roles and who to place in newly created roles in the organisation, based on all available data in order to deliver outstanding business performance. SHL will help organisations in China implement ‘People Intelligence’ programmes to ensure continued success in the marketplace.
SHL has re-aligned its brand to reflect better its commitment to delivering People Intelligence programmes globally. China, as a strategically important market, has fully adopted this brand refresh, which will be rolled out across to all stakeholders across the country through the coming months.
