New Management Association of the Philippines (MAP) president Al Panlilio wants the distinguished business group to not only focus on innovating but also on sustainability and youth development.
On Thursday, the Maya Bank chair was inducted into the position during the 77th inaugural meeting of MAP.
Panlilio unveiled that the group’s theme for the year is “management excellence for a progressive Philippines.”
“We will continue advancing environmental, social and governance principles and fostering shared prosperity as a key strategic thrust for the year. By integrating sustainable practices, promoting ethical leadership and driving inclusive growth, we aim to create long-term value for MAP members and all other stakeholders,” he said.
“On investing in the youth, we will continue the campaign against malnutrition and child stunting and we will continue advocating for government and private sector to pursue relevant education, health and wellness programs, particularly for the youth,” he added.
The former president of PLDT Inc. also presented the top concerns of its members this year: corruption, education, economy, ease of doing business, climate change, cybersecurity and working with local government units.
