A day in the life of a Learning & Development Manager in Thailand
Where I hope to be in 5 years
I plan to be L&D Director or Head of L&D in 8 years.
My advice to students considering work
Pay attention to your study and find time to explore things around you. Make friends, go travelling, socialize and learn about different cultures. During your dissertation time, start to think about your first job after graduation. Don't let yourself be unemployed more than 3-4 months. Start to live and learn as an adult!
If you're interested to work in an L&D function, you can start by attending useful seminars, reading more books about self-development. This sector will become more popular in the future as companies invest more in developing employees.

What I do
I'm working as a Learning & Development Manager at Estee Lauder Companies based in Thailand. My roles and responsibilities are as follows;
- Plan and develop training and development programs annually to ensure that all employees increase their skills to company
- Develop and conduct orientation and induction programs for new hired employees
- Coordinate with Corporate L&D for overseas training and development programs
- Manage and control training and development budget
- Implement performance development plan to ensure alignment with global and regional strategies
- Identify training needs and design training and development programs based on business needs and individual development plan
Skills I use and how I developed them
Extracurricular skills:
Presentation, train-the-trainer and coaching skills. I've developed these skills mostly from my work.
What I like most
Working in Learning & Development enables me to improve myself continually. Knowing and sharing knowledge make me feel happy and fulfilled.
What I like least
I have no assistant to help me do operation works so I have to fully manage things by myself from strategy to execution.
