Our Pillars of Success

Pillar 1 - Values and Governance

The DNA of any organization is defined by its Values and Code of Conduct. However, simply stating them is not sufficient, it must imbibe in all aspects of a company’s decisions and activities on an ongoing basis. Recognizing the importance of Values, we are constantly engaged in both creating awareness and actualization of its values across its employees by conducting LSIP (large scale interactive process) with the goal to create the right framework within the organization where-in all employees of UK make values a part of their everyday lives, both personal and professional. Also, we ensure efficient and ethical operations both in business dealing and people management practices in order to live our Code of Conduct.

Pillar 2 – Top Talent Management and Succession Planning

The objective is to identify and nurture top talent to ensure a robust leadership pipeline within the organization through Assessment/ Development Centers, Gap Analysis, Performance/ Potential Mapping, Individual Development Planning, Executive Coaching, Mentoring, Strategic workshops, Job Rotations, Rising Star Identification Program, UK Lead Management Trainee Program (UKLMT) and the like.
