Comprehensive leadership training offers and strong values, communications, & ethics play a significant part in this.
“This remarkable achievement reflects our steadfast dedication to creating an environment where our employees can thrive both personally and professionally,” said May Evangelista, Head of Human Resources at Boehringer Ingelheim Philippines.
Boehringer’s employer offerings continue to score high, particularly in the categories “Steer” and “Develop”.

It is one example how Boehringer supports its employees – whether in a leadership role or not – to steer their own development. The Academy helps create a shared understanding of leadership and offers targeted training for different leadership roles. Whether stepping into a leadership role for the first time or being a senior executive, tailored training will be available to all leaders.
“Our performance underscores our commitment to strong leadership and talent development, ensuring that our employees’ wellbeing, work environment, and career growth are always at the forefront of our initiatives,” Evangelista continued. “We encourage our employees to develop their own career paths and provide tools that help them find the balance that supports their goals.”
Develop your own path – at work and in private life
Boehringer’s learning offerings show how the company puts its people promise to “develop your own path” into practice. The internal Boehringer Ingelheim University makes a state-of-the-art virtual campus accessible to all 53,500 employees worldwide. The Leadership Academy is part of the University and offers in-person and virtual training. Their focus ranges from self-awareness to successfully driving teamwork. The modules help build skills in areas like stress and resilience, giving feedback, empowerment, problem-solving, and diversity, equity and inclusion.
The leadership offerings also cover Boehringer’s holistic employee wellbeing program which includes mental, physical, social, and financial health. The company’s flexible working models are another contributor to the wellbeing approach. Some examples include the locally launched Volunteer Leave that allows employees to utilize leaves separate from their vacation leaves to carry out volunteering and charity work, as well as the formation of local well-being activities and initiatives. Overall, Boehringer takes an integrated approach to build an attractive work environment with an equitable, competitive, and transparent rewards and benefits program.
