The essence of Hiking’s corporate culture is responsibility. We treat responsibility as our duty and obligation and as important as our lives. Responsibility is our original aspiration and persistence; it is the cornerstone for building a leading and respectful enterprise.

Responsibility is a crucial attribute for a person that distinguishes you from others. It is a particular obligation that a person is held accountable for family and community. A person’s level of fulfilling his responsibility shows how trustworthy and competent he is.
Fulfilling corporate responsibility is how a company gains community recognition and respect. A company that does not fulfill its corporate responsibility is less likely to be sustainable. The past 20 years of Hiking Group’s achievements are not just a journey of striving for excellence, but also a journey of determined commitment to responsibility and continuously fulfilling this commitment.

A person’s level of fulfilling responsibility determines his level of self-confidence and competency.

A person who has a high level of personal responsibility in the family will lead to a happier family life. A person who has a high level of fulfilling responsibility in the community will be considered as a person of trustworthy and reliable, hence more than likely to gain support when needed. A person who has a strong personal responsibility and commitment to fulfilling personal responsibility will be a devoted employee who is passionate about work, a determined employee to tackle any difficulties along the way, a self-motivated employee to fight for success and a self-disciplined employee to cultivate harmony in the relationship.
 
American sociologist Kingsley Davis said, “Discharging a responsibility renders one liable to some censure or penalty.” The more a person practices responsibility, the more likely he will be successful. Practicing personal responsibility will allow him to achieve the lifestyle he desires, adhere to society’s norms of personal behaviors, create positive ripple effects for those around him and become more confident and competent. If a person chooses not to practice personal responsibility, he gives up his opportunity of becoming mature and competent.

●Social responsibility is an important ingredient of a corporate’s core competency.

A corporate is an important part of society and therefore needs to be socially accountable to itself, its stakeholders and the public. A corporate needs to let environmental and social impacts guide its actions to make it sustainable and a good corporate citizen.
 
Roger Connors, the founder of the corporate culture of responsibility, indicated in Change the Culture, Change the Game that the sense of responsibility is neither a choice nor a fashion, but a basic requirement of today’s business community for enterprises. Social responsibility is an important ingredient of a corporate’s core competency. To participate in domestic and foreign cooperation and competition and to take companies to a higher level, companies must practice their social responsibilities. Companies that always abide by laws, and positively impact society and environment will have better public relations and brand image. Organizations that embrace corporate social responsibility yield benefits since customers and investors often prefer socially responsible companies.
 
●The practice of corporate social responsibility is well demonstrated throughout the development history of Hiking Group.

Practicing social responsibility does not stop at your words; it is more that you do what you say. The transformation and evolution process of Hiking Group was not only a result of self-determination for success, but also a result of following the directives from State Government, embracing and practicing social responsibility. This has made it possible for Hiking Group to diversify its businesses from single international trading to multiple industries like healthcare/wellbeing and advanced materials.
 
— We exercise our duty of care for assets under the ownership of the State Government with diligence, integrity, respect and in an ethical manner to safeguard the State interest. We hold firmly a fine thin red line in safeguarding State interest in that never ever attempt to take a penny out of State assets with absolutely zero tolerance. On the other hand, to improve the liquidity of State assets, we successfully implemented a number of actions to create new business opportunities out of long-idling State assets, creating jobs for employees who would otherwise be dismissed. All these activities in combination have been well recognized by society.
 
— To assist small companies to develop the international market, we founded a one-stop international trading service platform, the first comprehensive exporting service-oriented platform in Northern China. We have till now served over 15,000 small companies, realizing our set function of an incubator.
 
— We actively engaged ourselves in the State’s call for developing healthcare and wellbeing segment. Taking the advantage of ready access to global resources, we introduced sophisticated eldercare and service concepts to China and set up a “Five-star” institutional senior care model, so that seniors can enjoy a quality life after retirement. At the same time, we are working diligently with world-leading specialized hospitals, striving to improve the medical care quality to society.
 
— We expanded into advanced materials graphite with the objective of optimizing the industrial application of this strategic material. We are committed to transforming the strategic resource of graphite into a sustainable industry”.
 
After years of evolution, Hiking Group has now formed a sophisticated business structure in that international trade is the mainstream with medical care/wellbeing and advanced materials being a new direction and future. When pursuing business growth, Hiking Group has been fulfilling its social responsibility at the same time. Through its supply chain activities, Hiking Group has created, directly and indirectly, 1.2 million jobs each year. In addition, Hiking Group is also actively involved in the public welfare and charity activities, embracing green and sustainable development to have a positive impact on society.
 
Practicing corporate social responsibility requires a balance of power and responsibility.


Corporate governance is a system of defining, assessing and practicing a set of rules related to power, responsibility and compensation, among which responsibility sits in the middle connecting power and compensation. Power arises from responsibilities, so they are like two sides of a coin.
 
When Hiking Group was founded at the very beginning, the entire shareholders invested their savings into this company, granting us the power to use their savings to grow the company. We take this as a great honor and responsibility to serve the shareholders. When a leader knows how to use his power wisely, it means that the leader understands the relationship between power and responsibility. A leader in a company should pay more attention to his non-power influence or charismatic influence.
 
In reality, some people only see the various benefits arising out of power, but ignore the fact that taking responsibility is a prerequisite before exercising power. The power without responsibility will inevitably lead to corruption.
 
Corporate social responsibility is the cornerstone of building a sustainable enterprise.

With a profound comprehension of the essence of responsibility, we take responsibilities as important as we do to our lives. This is our original aspiration and persistence, and it is also the cornerstone of building a sustainable and respectful leading enterprise.
 
We earn our reputation from others based on our actions. Companies that are truly conscious about their impact on society, and practice their social responsibilities by actions will earn respect and recognition from society. Those companies are competent and will prosper.
 
We should always take responsibilities as important as we do to lives. No matter how the environment changes and what future will present in front of us, responsibility will always remain the keyword for Hiking Group to move ahead. We will work diligently to overcome all the difficulties along the way without hesitation so long as we know what we do benefits shareholders, employees, the company and society.
 
Every employee at Hiking has witnessed how Hiking practiced its social responsibility. At the same time, they are also deeply involved in fulfilling Hiking’s responsibilities. For our employees, shouldering responsibility means being faithful to our mission, being responsible at the workplace and being diligent in every task. If we treat our job as a life-long career, are passionate about work and life and are dedicated to job, we will achieve a more successful life, and build a sustainable and respectful leading enterprise.
