Molex Korea, an electronic connector company, won the '2015 Korea Communication Management Award' hosted by The Korea Economic Magazine.

The 'Korea Communication Management Awards,' hosted by The Korea Economic Magazine and organized by Hankyung Business, Money, is an event now in its fifth year and is a prestigious awards ceremony that selects and awards the nation's best 'communication management companies.'

Lee Jae-hoon, CEO of Molex Korea, stated, “I consider it a great honor to receive the ‘Korea Communication Management Grand Prize.’ My corporate management philosophy is that happy employees create happy customers, and a company where employees and their families are happy is a great place to work that achieves long-term growth.”

A company that values communication, driving product development through innovation

“I believe that one of the essential requirements for a great workplace is a free and two-way communication culture where employees can freely express their opinions to both the company and their superiors, while mutually respecting the character and views of others. This is because a free and creative organizational culture that enables communication is essential for employees to fully demonstrate their capabilities and, furthermore, realize their dreams. To this end, Molex Korea will continue to make ceaseless efforts to communicate with employees and strive to provide policy support for this,” the company stated.

True to its corporate culture that values communication, Molex Korea regards internal communication as the most critical key factor for sustainable business growth and is devoting its efforts to successfully managing it. Molex Korea's internal communication channels are characterized by the active interest and voluntary participation of executives and employees, including the CEO, in order to continuously develop diverse communication channels and share practical information.

Above all, Molex Korea recognizes that communication between field staff and management is an essential element for strategic business development through innovation, and is encouraging the development of products that reflect creative ideas through smooth communication.



Molex Korea is renowned for sharing the vision, key business status, and major issues of not only the Korean Molex but also the global Molex with all employees. It provides a quarterly audio-video conference call called the 'QBU (Quarterly Business Update),' which allows for an overview of the global Molex operations; this information is shared among all employees via email and the intranet, enabling them to review it at any time. Furthermore, Molex Korea holds regular monthly management meetings to share current business status, deliver events and major announcements, and conduct various training sessions.

Meanwhile, Molex Korea is making lively and active communication a part of daily life between management, executives, and individual employees through monthly birthday parties, weekly 'Lunch Meetings' with the CEO, and monthly new employee orientation meetings.
At Molex Korea, internal YPG (Young Professionals Group) activities are actively taking place based on this free and voluntary communication culture. The YPG Group, spearheaded by young employees, plays a pivotal role in horizontal communication by hosting various events to reflect the voices of minority executives and staff as well as diverse sectors of the company.

Tuition support for employees' children, operating expenses for employee clubs

YPG’s activities are diverse, ranging from social activities such as kimchi-making volunteer work, family-oriented local marathon participation, and year-end charity work, to internal social activities such as in-house flea markets, special lectures for couples, and one-day pubs, as well as various programs to enhance individual capabilities, such as special lectures on creating bucket lists, New Year’s goal time capsules, and level-based Excel classes taught by in-house instructors.

In addition to this, Molex shares internal news through 'Lex's Go,' an electronic company magazine produced in-house by employees, and provides various cultural activities through events such as performances, movies, amusement parks, and dining vouchers. Furthermore, the company strives to facilitate diverse communication between employees and the company through internal bulletin boards, posters, the intranet, and suggestion boxes.

Meanwhile, as part of its efforts to enhance employee capabilities and increase satisfaction, Molex Korea provides employees with opportunities for long-term overseas assignments and training through an employee benchmarking program, offering them the chance to experience and learn about best practices and cultures in the countries where Molex entities are located.

In addition, we provide tuition support for children attending school from kindergarten to university, and support the operating expenses of more than 20 clubs through in-house facilities such as gyms and tennis courts to promote employees' leisure activities and health. In addition, along with a flexible work schedule, every Wednesday is designated as 'Family Day' to allow employees to return home after 5 PM, and 'bridge holidays' are encouraged and personal annual leave is actively used to induce employees to have sufficient time for self-development and with their families.
