Vocational Scenarios
COVID-19 is a harsh test for businesses and the whole economy, which compels
companies to adapt and change to not only survive but also recover and grow
stronger as soon as the pandemic is under control.
Each business will have a different way of solving this problem. At a typical large-
scale enterprise like Vinamilk, dual goals (stabilise production and prevent the
disease) are implemented based on three key spearheads: Governance, Technology
and People. Vinamilk has implemented a series of change management to achieve
these goals.
