SM Supermalls earns multiple wins at prestigious regional HR awards

SM Supermalls earns recognition from two prestigious HR award-giving bodies in Southeast Asia and the Philippines, the Economic Times Human Capital Awards (ETHCA) and the HR Excellence Awards (HREA) Philippines, for its commitment to people-first innovation, continuous learning, and transformative leadership.

Driving a culture of learning and growth

At the Economic Times Human Capital Awards – Southeast Asia, SM Supermalls received the Bronze Award for Creating a Culture of Continuous Learning and Upskilling. This recognition highlights the success of Digital University (DIGI-U), the company’s innovative online learning platform that offers curated, on-demand courses, and its competency-based development strategy that has reached 100% of its workforce. This initiative has empowered employees to grow, adapt, and lead in a fast-evolving business landscape.

Championing volunteerism, change, and leadership

SM Supermalls also took home three major honors at the HR Excellence Awards Philippines 2025: Gold for Excellence in Employee Volunteerism for the SM Cares Volunteer Movement, which mobilized thousands of employees to contribute hours of service, positively impacting over 100,000 lives through community programs and disaster response efforts such as Operation Tulong Express.

It also received Silver for Excellence in HR Change Management for its BefoHR and AfteHR transformation journey, which redefined HR’s role from a support function to a strategic business partner, driving agility, adopting advanced technologies, and aligning HR with business goals.

SM further earned Silver for Excellence in Leadership Development for flagship programs such as the Executive Development Plan (EDP), Masterclass, Mentoring, Coaching, and Leading with Empathy & Feedback. These initiatives have strengthened SM’s leadership pipeline, achieving 35% internal role fulfillment and an impressive 97% retention rate for high-potential talent.

Leading with a purpose
“The future needs an evolution of how we lead, not just a change in what we do,” said Cheryll Ruth L. Agsaoay, SM Supermalls’ Senior Vice President for Human Resources. “These awards affirm that when we put our people at the center of what we do, we create not just a stronger organization, but a lasting positive impact on the people we serve.”

The recognition of two prestigious HR awards in the region affirms SM Supermalls’ commitment to fostering a workplace culture rooted in excellence, inclusivity, and innovation. As the company celebrates 40 super years of evolving, these accolades underscore its dedication to empowering its people, enriching communities, and continuously shaping the future of retail through meaningful and transformative experiences.

Bataan Set to Break Ground on Landmark Public Park Project

By Mhike Cigaral

Balanga City, Bataan — Bataan is taking a big step toward a greener and more livable province as it launches the construction of a landmark public park on Friday, August 15, 2025. The highly anticipated project, part of the national “Green Green Green” program, aims to transform a portion of the Capitol Compound into a vibrant, eco-friendly space for leisure, culture, and community gatherings.

The groundbreaking ceremony will be a gathering of top government officials and local leaders, underscoring the park’s significance. Leading the event are Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Secretary Amenah F. Pangandaman, Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) Secretary Engr. Jose Ramon P. Aliling, and Bataan Governor Joet Garcia. They will be joined by Vice Governor Ma. Cristina M. Garcia and Balanga City Vice Mayor Francis S. Garcia along with other provincial officials.

Governor Garcia will present the project’s vision, which blends open green spaces, landscaped gardens, and community-friendly amenities. Secretary Pangandaman is expected to deliver an inspirational message highlighting the government’s commitment to sustainable infrastructure and public spaces. The event will culminate with a symbolic groundbreaking at the Capitol Oval, marking the start of a development poised to become a centerpiece of Bataan’s urban landscape.
