Keeping Allstars Engaged
We pride ourselves on being a social
airline, encouraging constant dialogue
between Allstars across all levels.
We have always maintained as flat a
hierarchical structure as possible and
work in open spaces to promote easy
interaction. At RedQ, the atrium that
occupies central position often ‘comes
alive’ with activities from Zumba to
townhall sessions, at which senior
management update everyone on the
company’s performance as well as to
hear from them directly on what they
would like the company to improve on. In
addition to townhalls, important corporate
updates are also disseminated online via
Workplace by Facebook.
We value each Allstar and seek to create
an environment in which everyone feels
respected and knows that his/her opinions
matter. This creates an open platform for
dialogue in which all voices are heard,
contributing towards a better, more
efficient workspace.
Our Corporate Culture department draws
up a busy schedule of events throughout
the year aimed at fostering closer ties
among Allstars, as well as strengthening
the relationship of each individual with
the organisation. On 11 July, for example,
a #RayaBersama potluck event was held
at which with 18 departmental teams
presented Raya dishes they had prepared
for everyone at RedQ to enjoy.
Along with the establishment of a Green
Team in 2017, we also saw Allstars engage
in a number of environment-focused
activities. Each month saw the spotlight
shift onto a different climate action theme,
such as energy conservation, recycling
and plastic waste reduction. Allstars
contributed ideas on how we can help
protect Mother Nature via Workplace by
Facebook while changing their behaviours
to be more environment-friendly. To
recognise individual actions, monthly
winners were identified. Meanwhile,
Allstars who demonstrated the most
outstanding green behaviours were
presented the Green Hero Awards at our
Annual Dinner Party.
This campaign served not only to increase
environmental awareness, but also
brought together Allstars from across
the region closer together, creating some
strong One AirAsia bonds. Educational
roadshows and workshops were held
in all six country operations across the
Group.
