Sung Weon Choi is the head of HR department in Hyundai Card/ Capital with extensive experience of more than 15 years mainly in HR.

Graduated from USC Marshall School MBA, he’s built his career from LG Electronics, and continued his concentration in HR at Mercer, well-noted for its prominence in HR Consulting.

During his career, he’s contributed to introducing market principle to Hyundai’s HR system. This brought about transformation to a typical Asian working virtue, obeying the hierarchical structure with passive working behavior. ‘Career Market’ being one of the good examples, was introduced to help employees develop their career flexibly with a market system absorbed in internal recruitment. In this system, the team leaders become the consumers and employees become the sellers, allowing interactive transaction. Amongst such atmosphere, employees became self-driven, and showed higher performance. Thus, this unprecedented attempt gained attention from the Government and Domestic/International Corporations with various media announcing Hyundai as a good example to benchmark.

Sung Weon Choi was invited to lecture Hyundai’s Best Practice at Korea’s prestigious universities (Seoul National University and Ewha Womens University, and etc), 2010 Korea Human Resource Management Conference, 2009 Korea Great Work Place (GWP) Conference-Special Speech and various conferences.
