International Women’s Day was recently observed across the Hong Leong Group of companies – City Developments Limited (CDL), Millennium Hotels and Resorts (MHR), and CBM – as a collective recognition of the strength and contributions of women in the Group. More than just an acknowledgement, it served as an opportunity to reaffirm the Group’s commitment to building inclusive environments where women can thrive.
At CDL, this commitment is reflected in both representation and culture. Women make up 68% of its workforce, reflecting the strong presence of female talent in the company. CDL spotlighted three inspiring women in a video feature, sharing reflections on the women who have influenced them, the milestones that defined their journeys, and their aspirations for the next generation. Their stories underscore the importance of strong support systems, self-belief, and the confidence to step forward and grow.
Join Annie Abraham, Head of City Serviced Offices, as she hosts an engaging fireside chat session with Cindy Low, Head of Marcom and Community Management, Asset Management Division, and Silvia Wang, Head of Japan, Group Investments, from City Developments Limited (CDL). The trio share personal stories, career milestones, and reflections on the individuals who have inspired them at CDL.
In this appreciation video, MHR shines a spotlight on Fiona Neo and Khoo Lin Lin from the Business Development team at M Hotel Singapore, Lutap Girlie Anne Tiglao and Maricel Carpio Santos from the Cluster Guest Experience team at M Social and Studio M Singapore, Audrey Reddy and Amalia Aman from the Sales and Operations team at Copthorne King’s Hotel Singapore, and Ivy Goh and Clarissa Chong from the Finance team at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore. Watch as they reflect on their experiences as mentors and mentees, sharing insights, first impressions, and the value gained from these collaborative partnerships.
In MHR, the focus turned to the value of mentorship and open conversations. Across its Singapore properties, mentors and mentees came together for candid conversations about the realities women face in the hospitality industry. These discussions revealed shared experiences of challenge and growth, while highlighting how cross-generational learning strengthens both individuals and teams. Each story shared and perspective exchanged contributes to a more inclusive and forward-looking hospitality landscape.
Copthorne Slough Windsor Hotel is one example. The hotel treated its women employees to a celebration that included games, a raffle draw, and special desserts like chocolates and milkshake.
At CBM, the celebration recognised the contributions of women across the organisation. From operational roles to leadership positions, their dedication and expertise continue to drive excellence and foster a more inclusive workplace. The event emphasised the importance of acknowledging these contributions while reinforcing a culture of support, empowerment, and collaboration.
Women at CBM play a vital role in shaping the organisation’s dynamic and collaborative culture. The appreciation event captures the team’s energy and shared commitment that drives CBM’s workplace forward.
Together, these reflect the Group’s collective dedication to advancing inclusion in meaningful ways. The Hong Leong Group of companies remain committed to creating environments where women are supported to grow, lead, make an impact, and help shape a more inclusive and empowered future for all.
