On May 30^th, 2026, CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company held the Closing Ceremony and Certificate Presentation for the Executive Training Program on Servant Leadership, recognizing managers from across the Company’s operations in Northern, Central and Southern Vietnam, as well as its international markets. The program marks a significant milestone in CENTRAL’s ongoing journey to transform its leadership mindset and enhance organizational performance.

The Servant Leadership Program, developed and delivered by Blanchard Vietnam (PACE Institute of Management) at CENTRAL’s request, was designed to redefine the role of leadership in the modern organizations. Conducted over four weeks, from April 18 to May 30, 2026, the program welcomed nearly 150 employees holding positions from Project Directors and above. Following its successful completion, CENTRAL plans to extend the program to its next generation of management talent in the future.

Throughout the program, CENTRAL reaffirmed its strategic commitment to people development, innovation, and people-centered leadership, while strengthening management capabilities across the organization. The initiative also supports the Company’s broader transformation strategy, including organizational restructuring, streamlined operations, clear delegation of authority, and empowering leaders at every project site and functional department.

Over the four-week learning journey, participants explored essential leadership principles, from active listening, empathy, and constructive feedback to the deeper meaning of serving others through leadership. These lessons introduced new perspectives on managing teams and cultivating high-performing organizations. The program reinforced the belief that a truly strong organization is defined not by hierarchy or job titles, but by the responsibility, integrity, and leadership demonstrated by every individual.

More than simply marking the completion of a training course, the certificate presentation ceremony celebrated the participants’ commitment to continuous learning and personal growth. CENTRAL expects the values and leadership principles cultivated through the program to continue spreading throughout its projects, departments, and teams, fostering a leadership culture built on trust, accountability, service, and people development.

At CENTRAL, creating a happy workplace-where people are respected, empowered, and given opportunities to grow-remains a long-term commitment and a fundamental pillar of the Company’s sustainable development strategy.

On 10 and 11 June 2026, CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company successfully organized its annual 2026 Internship Orientation and Training Program for outstanding students selected from the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT) and the University of Architecture Ho Chi Minh City (UAH). Since the Company’s early years, the program has served as a key talent development initiative, fostering a strong pipeline of future professionals while providing students with early career opportunities in a professional working environment and a competitive compensation framework upon graduation.

The program commenced with a welcome address by Mr. Tran Quang Tuan, CEO of CENTRAL, who shared the Company’s long-term development vision and strategic direction. Through inspiring real-life stories about CENTRAL’s journey to becoming one of Vietnam’s leading General Contractors and its roadmap toward expanding into international markets, Mr. Tuan encouraged the interns to continuously develop their professional expertise, strengthen their sense of responsibility, and cultivate the ambition to conquer new industry standards. The Company’s leadership also expressed its expectation that the next generation of engineers will embrace lifelong learning, resilience, and a commitment to excellence throughout their careers.

During the program, Ms. Cao Thi Diem Chau, Human Resources Manager of CENTRAL, provided an overview of the 2026 Internship Recruitment Program, introducing the internship roadmap, professional development opportunities, and the learning experience designed for participants throughout their journey with the Company. Through its long-term strategy of identifying and nurturing talent at an early stage, CENTRAL is committed to creating a practical learning environment where young professionals can develop their capabilities, enhance their skills, and confidently prepare for their future careers.

As part of the program, the interns participated in a comprehensive onboarding and professional training series covering the Company’s history and development, corporate culture, organizational structure, and the roles and responsibilities of each department. In addition, they received fundamental knowledge of construction project management, site management organization, and the key construction processes and operational procedures implemented across CENTRAL’s projects.

Through its annual internship training program, CENTRAL continues to reaffirm its long-term commitment to partnering with leading universities in developing high-quality human resources for Vietnam’s construction industry. Beyond providing students with valuable exposure to a professional working environment, the Company aims to cultivate a new generation of engineers equipped with technical competence, innovative thinking, and global readiness-empowering them to deliver sustainable construction projects that create lasting value for communities.

On April 18, 2026, CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company organized an Executive Training Program on Servant Leadership for the BOM and Project Directors at the company headquarters. The program was designed to establish a strong leadership foundation in preparation for the Company’s 2026 strategic objectives, while driving a transformation in management mindset and enhancing team performance.

Servant Leadership – A Modern Leadership Development Trend

As businesses increasingly prioritize sustainable development and recognize PEOPLE as the core value, Servant Leadership has gradually emerged as a prominent management trend. Understanding the growing need for this leadership approach within its management system, CENTRAL collaborated with Blanchard Vietnam to implement the program, bringing a fresh perspective on the role of leadership in modern organizations.

With more than 45 years of experience, Blanchard is recognized as one of the world’s pioneering organizations in leadership training and development, operating in over 80 countries and supporting millions of managers and senior executives, particularly within Fortune 500 corporations. The organization has consistently been named among the Top 20 Leadership Training Companies for 17 consecutive years. In Vietnam, Blanchard’s programs are implemented through Blanchard Vietnam (PACE Institute of Management), combining international training standards with flexible adaptation to local business contexts.

The “Servant Leadership Essentials – The Power of Leading with Heart” course, customized by Blanchard for CENTRAL, focused on redefining the role of leadership in modern organizations. This model shifts leadership thinking from authority-based management toward a people-centered approach focused on serving and developing employees through empowerment, understanding, and closer connection, enabling employees to openly share their challenges and concerns with leaders.

The model is also built upon the philosophy of Ken Blanchard, centered around the fundamental question every leader should ask themselves: “Am I here to serve or to be served?”

Speaking at the program, CEO Tran Quang Tuan highly appreciated the value of the “Servant Leadership Essentials – The Power of Leading with Heart” course delivered by Blanchard Vietnam to CENTRAL’s BOM and Project Directors. He also expressed sincere appreciation to the organization and shared his expectation for broader cooperation in extending this meaningful program to middle-management levels across the company.

Beyond fostering a servant leadership mindset, the course also equipped participants with essential skills such as building and sustaining trust, practicing active listening for continuous learning, and delivering timely, open, and constructive feedback. These capabilities help leaders improve team interaction quality, enhance performance, strengthen employee engagement, retain talent, and encourage innovation throughout the organization. Through this program, CENTRAL continues shaping a leadership culture that is people-centric, adaptive, and sustainable – qualities that are increasingly vital in today’s business environment.

On March 6&7, 2026, CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company organized the program “AI Training and Application in the Workplace” for the BODs and managers at the Company’s headquarters. The program aimed to equip leaders with the mindset and practical skills to apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) in management, operations, and daily work processes amid the accelerating wave of digital transformation.

The training program focused on key topics including an overview of AI and Generative AI, effective collaboration with AI tools through prompt engineering, and practical applications of AI in everyday tasks such as report summarization, information analysis, planning, and decision support. Through a combination of expert presentations and hands-on exercises, participants were introduced to the concept of using AI as a “digital assistant” to streamline workflows, shorten processing time, and improve overall management efficiency.

Sharing his perspective on the program, Mr. Tran Quang Tuan, Chairman of CENTRAL, stated: “CENTRAL highly values the knowledge and practical benefits that AI training programs bring. This is extremely useful knowledge that should soon be expanded to deputy project managers, department heads, and specialist teams directly involved in operations. At the same time, we should organize additional advanced training programs tailored to specific professional areas such as media, administration, human resources, engineering, finance, and accounting, with learning pathways ranging from two to six weeks. In the long term, our goal is to extend AI training to all employees across the company.”

Organizing a dedicated AI training program for the Company’s leadership and management teams demonstrates CENTRAL’s proactive approach to embracing emerging technologies while strengthening its governance capabilities. As the construction industry undergoes significant transformation supported by digital tools, AI is increasingly viewed as a key technology for optimizing workflows, enhancing productivity, and enabling faster, more accurate decision-making.

Throughout its development journey, CENTRAL has consistently considered human resource development and training as a critical factor in strengthening competitiveness and ensuring sustainable growth. The Company regularly organizes professional training programs, management skill development, and modern working methodologies for employees and leadership teams.

The program “AI Training and Application in the Workplace ” once again reaffirms CENTRAL’s commitment to continuous innovation, enhanced management capacity, and the adoption of advanced technologies. Through ongoing training initiatives, CENTRAL aims to cultivate a workforce with innovative thinking, strong leadership capabilities, and the agility required to adapt to the rapidly evolving business environment.
