Halla Way_Work Properly

This column was created as part of practicing “Halla Way, Work Properly,” for global Mando people to share the seven major Work Smart tasks and practice cases.

MDK (Mando Korea) has continuously carried out open communication activities since 2015 to create a Work Smart culture. The Open Committees

(OC), are at the center of such activities as a group of opinion leaders.

In early March, the OCs gathered at MDK for the 2018 Open Committee Workshop to discuss ideas to promote Work Smart in each division. Here is

a look into how they drive change and create a Work Smart culture at the OC workshop.

OC(Open Committee)

Open Communication

A group of opinion leaders who sug-gest constructive ideas to improve on key themes related to Work Smart. One person on each team is selected under the supervision of the division head, and one OC leader is selected for each division.

An avenue for working together to come up with ideas for creating a Work Smart culture and practice such rem-edies with open communication and discussions between division heads and the OC.

· 05

Open Committee Workshop, a Focal Point Where Changes BeginThe 2018 Open Committee Workshop to create a Work

Smart culture for each division was held from March 7 to 9 at

the Halla Human Resources Development Center, and 165

OC members from a total of 32 divisions participated.

The workshop, which was held in three parts, started with

welcoming remarks from Shim Sang-yoon, the head of the

Global HR Center. Shim congratulated the participants for

being selected as OCs and asked them to “make a concert-

ed effort to build a better company where workers can work

more effectively, with a positive mindset and pride as the

supportive agent of change management.”

The workshop schedule included introducing Open Commu-

nication activities, listening to a special lecture on change

management by an external lecturer, showing the results of

a Work Smart survey, sharing best practice examples, and

holding small group discussions. The special lecture held in

the morning reaffirmed the importance of change manage-

ment with examples from other companies, and the roles

and responsibilities of the people in charge of change man-

agement were contemplated.

In the afternoon, the results of a company-wide Work Smart

survey that was carried out in February were shared, and the

best examples among the Work Smart practices submitted

by each team in January were introduced to the OCs to be

used as the basis to come up with improvement suggestions

for each division.

Town Hall Meeting with Division Head, a Driving Engine of ChangeAlso, the OC members conducted small group discussions

in the workshop to come up with ideas for forming a Work

Smart culture in connection with key themes, “Seven Work

Smart Tasks.” Ideas for improvement which were produced

here are shared throughout each division at the Town Hall

Meeting hosted by each division head, through which a final

decision is made collectively on improvement plans to be

implemented with all members participating in open commu-

nication.

7 Major Work Smart Tasks

HMI, Communication between Humans and AutomobilesAlthough great many functions have been added to automo-

biles due to the technological advancement, operating them

has become more complex. However, upgraded future auto-

mobiles will resolve this complexity, and in turn will make it

easier for drivers to operate them.

Human-machine interface (HMI), which organically connects

humans and automobiles, helps to operate vehicles more in-

tuitively and conveniently. HMI acts to connect human ana-

logical cognitive processes such as sight and hearing with

the digital systems of computers and communication sys-

tems. HMI minimizes sight dispersion and makes operating

automobiles easy with voice recognition, which operates

by voice instead of switches or levers, motion recognition,

which gives orders with motions, touch technology, etc.,

thereby creating an environment where drivers can concen-

trate on driving.

nVIDIA, a leader in artificial intelligence technology, is re-

searching ways to realize cutting-edge HMI using artificial in-

telligence, such as opening doors with face recognition, user

management with motion recognition, voice control by un-

derstanding natural language, and driver attention warnings

with eye-tracking technology. Volkswagen has announced

that it is planning on using such technologies in developing

next-generation intelligent automobiles.

Smart Mobility

As more and more individual industries and technologies converge, the speed at which future automotive technology grows is also accelerating.

Technologies once thought to belong to different fields are now organically converged to lead to a new level of evolution. Now, electronic and com-

munication technologies have become key elements that are inseparable from the automotive industry, and their importance keeps on increasing.

We examine the future of smart mobility with keywords from the electronic and communication fields, which were at the center of attention at the

Consumer Electronic Show (CES) held earlier this year, and the Mobile World Congress (MWC), the world’s largest mobile exhibition, as well as the

PyeongChang Olympics.

Deep Learning, Automobile that Learns How to Drive “When people drive, automobiles learn how to drive by them-

selves,” George Hotz, the founder of Comma.ai, said while

introducing an autonomous driving automobile based on

deep learning. This means that if someone drives an auto-

mobile with artificial intelligence based on deep learning, it

learns how that person drives and develops into an automo-

bile that can drive by itself.

When Google announced autonomous driving for the first

time in 2012, a car body cost about $150,000. However, a

great reduction in cost and time has been achieved as deep

learning technology is applied in this field.

At present, the technology related to autonomous driving

uses information collected with cameras and many different

types of sensors, such as radar, lidar, infrared sensors, and

ultrasound. While previous sensors simply recognized ob-

jects, artificial intelligence understands the meaning of the

objects recognized. A new venture company called AutoX

realizes autonomous driving using only cameras.

The surrounding environment input via six cameras is rec-

ognized as if by a person and controls the automobile. Also,

it gathers various driving data while driving and learns like a

human.

Automobile manufacturers have already started competing.

A fierce competition is expected to unfold since future mar-

ket leaders will be determined by how much deep learning

capacity is obtained.

5G, Connecting Automobiles and Networks Korea, an ICT powerhouse, proudly presented 5G, the

next-generation wireless communications technology, at Py-

eongChang Winter Olympics in February. The future auto-

mobile market is also paying attention to 5G.

Google announced that autonomous driving automobiles

will be common by 2020, like general automobiles are today.

Why 2020? That is because 5G wireless communications

technology will be commercialized in 2020. 5G technology

is considered to be an absolute requirement to realizing IT

technologies, such as autonomous driving automobiles, ar-

tificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), and virtual

reality.

5G has better transmission speed, delay time, and termi-

nal accommodation capacity than the commonly used 4G

LTE: the transmission data capacity is 1,000 times larger

and speed is 200 times faster. Also, since the delay time

generated in the data transmitting and receiving process is

short, service with no delays is possible. 5G technology will

connect automobiles, automobiles and infrastructure, auto-

mobiles and networks, and automobiles and pedestrians in

real time.

It is expected that more than two-thirds of the automobiles

worldwide will have a wireless connectivity function by 2022.

To prepare for this, the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA)

was established in September 2016.

Automobile manufacturers, such as BMW, Nissan and Ford,

IT companies, such as Samsung Electronics and LG Elec-

tronics, automotive parts manufacturing companies, and

wireless communications companies have joined the asso-

ciation in preparation for the 5G era. Also, professional re-

searchers in each field formed a group to develop 5G-based

vehicle solutions, innovate and design vehicle system struc-

tures and establish business and commercialization strate-

gies together.

People Story

Quality is Our Pride My quality control career started 13 years ago in a Toyota

engine manufacturing plant, where I gained my basic knowl-

edge about quality management in the entire manufacturing process.

This experience was of a great help for me in smoothly adapting to

the Mando environment, as well as in developing the quality control

department at MCP with new local staff and Korean superiors. Among

others, I would like to thank Kim Youn-ho (Simon), who showed con-

tinuous support through mentoring and experience-sharing. I am also

grateful to Kim Jang-sub (Joseph), who has served the same role as

Senior Manager,

Quality Control Dept. MCP

Hello, I am Marcin Sopiarz, a senior manager working in MCP (Mando Cor-

poration Poland). I joined Mando during the summer of 2012, at which the

initial operation of the plant started. Upon joining, I was tasked with installing

measuring devices in our laboratories and conducting the first inspection. At

that time, plant construction had yet been completed, so I have a vivid mem-

ory of working with a safety helmet on due to ongoing construction work. We

prepared everything with our own hands, from making our brand to launching

a new quality control (QC) team.

my mentor.

My major responsibility is to manage the QC team, currently

made up of 53 members. Our main job is mass production

quality control, which ranges from warehousing inspection to

in-line inspection, verification, and reliability test and to cus-

tomer service. We are also in charge of maintaining control

devices and managing the IATF 16949 system.

Because MCP is producing three different types of products

(suspension, brake caliper and steering), QC’s responsibil-

ities are tripled. The staff in charge of QC needs to have

a high level and wide range of knowledge about all of the

products, and an open mind. In other words, they need to be

universal experts.

MCP is recognized by its customers for its quality. MCP has

received a very good evaluation in numerous on-site as-

sessment visits, and has also been highly acknowledged in

terms of shop floor management and 5S. MCP’s outstanding

quality has been demonstrated with its market position as a

Top 3 quality supplier, as well as with evaluation results from

the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM).

We need to remember that QC starts from following basic

standards and systems. The efforts of the shop floor staff in

production, maintenance, logistics, etc. are the most import-

ant elements of QC. I would like to take this opportunity to

thank all the members of MCP who have created the qual-

ity level of the current MCP by working with an open mind.

Quality is YOU!

Pojana, Tying the Family into OneAs for all of us, in my life, my closest family takes top priority.

I have a wonderful wife, Magdalena. Together we are doing

our best to lead our two children, our 14-year-old daughter

Zuzanna and 9-year-old son Emil, through life’s joys and dif-

ficulties. My wife is a primary school teacher, so she takes

a professional approach to

educating our children. We

support our kids to develop

their passions and talents

to full-bloom. Zuzanna is

attending a music school,

and her passion is singing

and playing the piano and

violin. We might see her on

TV someday. She has already been playing in several con-

certs held in the neighborhood. Emil, who is expected to be a

rising national soccer player, is attending a soccer academy.

He is also very good in logic games. He is always in the top

3 in his age category in local competitions. I’m a really happy

husband and father. I am really proud of my whole family.

Our whole family, which is quite big, has a tradition centered

on a folk band called Pojana and likes to spend a lot of time

together singing and dancing. The band was founded by my

wife’s great-grandfather, and the family tradition has contin-

ued for 60 years. The beginning of the band reflects the great

longings of Poles who once lived in Bukovina and returned to

their homeland after 200 years of exile. Now, the band is the

biggest and the oldest band in the country, representing the

culture of highlanders in the country.

Pojana participates in an international folk festival called

“Bukovina Meetings,” which takes place in five Eastern Eu-

ropean countries every year: Poland, Romania, Slovakia,

Hungary and Ukraine. It’s a magical time of integrating all

the Bukovina highlanders who are living in other countries, a

time occupied by singing, dancing and transferring traditions

to the next generation.

My goal for this year is to stabilize the quality for the new

premium customers of MCP (Volvo and BMW). I strongly be-

lieve that working with passion towards goals and not giving

up despite difficulties will do bear fruition. Nothing is impos-

sible!

A Festival of Colors where Everybody is Equal India’s Holi Festival

Every March, India is dyed with bright colors because of the Holi festival, which is for thanking for a good harvest and greeting spring. On March 2

this year, 1.28 billion Indians came out to the streets to celebrate together by throwing colored powder and water at each other.

India is very diverse country where varieties of physical features and cultural patterns co-exist. English and Hindi are the official languages, but there

are about 800 languages and 2,000 dialects altogether, and as many as 22 of them have been selected as official languages by states. There are no

less than 15 different languages in a panel on India’s paper money, in an alphabetical order. Numerous religions co-exist, from Hinduism to Islam,

Buddhism, Christianity, Sikhism, etc., as well as various ethnic groups. If diversity is a key word representing India, integration is a value shared and

followed by all Indians.

Holi was originally a Hindu festival, but it has developed into one

enjoyed by everybody regardless of religion, race, age and eco-

nomic status. The colored powder and water signify the victory of

good over evil and the arrival of spring after winter. It is held on the

full moon day of the last month in the Hindu calendar (early March

in the solar calendar). It differs depending on the region, but it is

usually held for two days to a week, and there are some places

where it is celebrated for two weeks.

The origin of Holi is very interesting. A long time ago, there was

a god named Krishna, who was the adopted son of a herdsman

couple. He was loved by many girls because of his good look and

charms, but only Radha was in his heart. Krishna was worried

that Radha, who had fair skin, would not like his dark skin color.

At the advice of his mother, he had some friends come over and

play by throwing colored powder and water at each other. Soon,

their bodies were coated in different colors that covered their skin

color. Consequently, Krishna and Radha fell in love, and the game

they played was passed down to become the Holi festival of today.

· 11

All Existences Mingled to Become OneDuring Holi, everybody becomes equal regardless of status, religion or

gender. Some may throw powder and water at people they have crush

on or shower friends or neighbors with powder for reconciliation over of

old scores.

The key rituals of Holi are performed over four days, including two days

before the festival. On Rang Pashi, two days before the full moon, all

family members gather to cover each other with colored powder and

water to wish them love and blessings. On Puno, one day before the

full moon, neighbors gather to burn a straw effigy of the witch Holika.

Unnecessary goods are burned together to send away the old days and

greet the new spring.

Parva, the day of the full moon, is the highlight of Holi. On this day, many

people come out to the streets, starting in the morning. They shout “Holi”

and throw colored powder called “Abir” at each other, laugh and play,

forgive and forget, say thanks and enjoy the festival.

MSI members gathered to celebrate Holi.

Kunal Kumar : Deputy Manager, MSI Support team

Greetings Mando family members! I would like to invite everybody to the exciting Holi festival held in

India every year. The staff of MSI spent a wonderful time at the annual festival. This year,

commemorative events were held to celebrate Holi at the Gurgaon and Bangalore offices on

March first and second.

Forget all hatred and sorrows and throw beautiful colors at each other. Why don’t you spend

a fun time with your friends, families and co-workers while eating delicious traditional

sweets such as Gujiya, Pakodi, Thandai, etc., which are varied like the colors?
