Rooted in Vietnamese Values. Powered by Global Excellence.

As the global talent landscape continues to shift, the meaning of a "best place to work" is being redefined. It’s no longer about perks or profits — it’s about creating environments where people thrive, feel inspired, and grow. And as Vietnam stands at a pivotal moment in its development, we have a unique opportunity to shape workplaces that not only meet global standards but reflect the essence of Vietnam’s cultural values.

At RespectVN, we’re proud to present our Special Edition White Paper: CORE ENABLERS TO MAKE VIETNAM A UNIQUELY BETTER PLACE TO WORK. This white paper serves as a bold vision for Vietnam’s workplace future — one that combines our rich cultural heritage with global excellence to create a thriving, employee-centric environment.

A Global Benchmark, Rooted in Vietnamese Values

Vietnam is on the rise economically, but to ensure that growth is sustainable, we must put people first. In our white paper, we benchmark Vietnam against some of the region's top-performing countries — Thailand, China, and Singapore — to understand how we measure up in terms of workplace quality and employee appeal.

This isn’t just about numbers or rankings. It's about leveraging our cultural distinctiveness to craft workplaces that are uniquely Vietnamese, yet driven by global best practices. We believe that by rooting our workplaces in Vietnamese values, we can rise above the global competition and create work environments that inspire, engage, and drive lasting impact.

The Five Core Enablers of Change

The most admired workplaces in Asia are built on five core enablers: mindset, governance, competence, technology, and motivation. These are the pillars that will propel Vietnam into a new era of workplace excellence — where businesses are powered by people, and people are inspired to give their best.

But this transformation doesn’t happen overnight. It requires more than just adopting global standards — it requires integrating them with our local values and culture to create something truly special. This white paper outlines how to leverage these five core enablers to create a uniquely better place to work for all of us.

A Call to Action: Transforming Vision into Reality

This white paper is not just a reflection of where Vietnam stands today; it’s a call to action. It challenges leaders, businesses, and policymakers to shift from short-term performance to long-term purpose. It asks us to invest not just in jobs, but in journeys. Not just in productivity, but in the environments that inspire growth and excellence.

Vietnam has the potential to be a global leader in workplace transformation — but we must take action now. We need to create an ecosystem where learning, growth, and inclusivity are at the heart of every workplace.

Together, We Can Build Vietnam’s Future

The opportunity is here. Let’s transform Vietnam into a country where people not only thrive, but also feel empowered, respected, and inspired at work. Let’s embrace our cultural roots while rising to meet the challenges of a globalized world. Together, we can create workplaces that reflect the best of both worlds — rooted in Vietnamese values, and powered by global excellence.
