The Hall of Fame is located in the lobby of Yeonam Hall at LG Academy in Icheon, the company’s main training center. It is where employees, from entry-level to executive, receive education in core values, management philosophy, and job-related skills. The location is designed to help all LG members naturally engage with examples of customer-driven innovation. The 31 members of this year’s three Grand Prize-winning teams personally mounted their plaques, commemorating their contributions to customer value.
