Top performers only.

the GCEO also mentioned that out of the 25 ppl present a few days ago, they expect 10% or 2 ppl in the room to stay on throughout and reach top executive level ie. their retention is about 10% across 7-10 years for MAs.

food for thought - do they airdrop ppl into executive positions from outside bc internal MAs keep leaving? or do MAs leave bc they keep airdropping ppl? we will never know the real answer

Errm I think it's because MAs leave the organization before the 7-10 years of MA. I mean you don't really see many people staying for such a long period of time in a single organization.

Wait, I don't get it. Why would MAs leave if potentially in the future (after 7 years), you can become executive level leaders if you perform well?

Maybe you know you won't be hitting it? Or you have other push pull factors?

to be honest. Most of the MA program , no matter which organisation, is just a way for the management to discover young talents who have the potential to be given responsibility at a younger age instead of grinding all the way up the organisation

Unfortunately, not everyone who got offered an MA position, will eventually be good enuf to take on that executive role. If they don’t see that potential in you, they would just drop u to an department and u grind your way up like a normal employee

MA is to discover talents . Not to give u a safe air ticket to management position before 30

Complete MAP: end of 2 years

Talent poll: 3rd-5th years

Executive (E1-E3):4th to 7th year

Top Executive (E4 and above): 7th year and beyond

the time horizon is a bit vague, take it with a pinch of salt

Major bag alert

I have a Singtel friend from their MA program.
At his 10th mark, he is only earning 160K pa

He is damn high calibre type, I think he could have make more if he didnt stay in Singtel throughout his career
