The Hague, The Netherlands – APM Terminals CEO Kim Fejfer was joined by Tiemen Meester, Vice President of APM Terminals Human Resources and Labor Relations in a ceremony at the Universidad de San Andres in Buenos Aires, Argentina bestowing diplomas upon the graduates of the latest APM Terminals Management (MAGNUM) training class.

Chosen from applicants within the APM Terminals Global Terminal Network in a highly competitive selection process, MAGNUM participants proceed through a three-module program featuring practical terminal hands-on training assignments as well as rigorous classroom curricula. This year’s class was accredited by the Institute of Leadership and Management and consisted of classes in Leadership, Finance and Operations;  Strategy; two e-learnings prepared by Cornell University; 7 internal consultancy projects driven by business demand; and 7 coaching sessions with an executive coach.     

“Our goal as a company is to be the best in the business” commented Kim Fejfer, CEO of APM Terminals in his remarks to the graduates, “and the MAGNUM program has prepared you well for your future careers”.

In addition to the coursework and rotating terminal assignments during the 12 months, a major goal of the program is to expose participants to international postings outside of their own countries and regions, and to develop strong team cohesion among the leaders for their careers together across the APM Terminals Global Terminal Network.

“Our people strategy is designed to develop the leaders of the future with the best business and leadership skills who can make the best decisions, anticipate our customer’s needs and find solutions to their biggest challenges, added Tiemen Meester, Vice President of Human Resources and Labor Relations at APM Terminals in The Hague, Netherlands.
