Since the birth of the first riveted blue jeans 143 years ago, originality has been a core value at Levi Strauss & Co – with the belief that innovation keeps it ahead of competition.

According to Karthik Sarma, the VP of human resources for Asia, Middle East and Africa at Levi Strauss & Co, innovation is at the heart of everything the company does.

“We have 18 nationalities working in the Singapore HQ, and with such a diverse workforce, it is critical to provide employees with an interactive open-plan workplace which fosters innovation in the way we cater to our consumers, tackle challenges and nurture a culture of being expressive yet accountable,” he said.

Levi’s does so by having a retail design lab complete with mannequins and product displays as well as having the marketing slogan – “Live in Levi’s” – written out in neon lights at the reception area.

Sarma points out that another essential element when moving offices is constant communication.

“Keeping employees informed with regular communications ensures they are involved in the process, making the transition that much smoother.”
