A corporate
commitment policy
One of the factors driving the growth of the Group is its
recruitment and professional development policy. Its key
values are to identify talent, to value the acquisition of profes-
sional skills, to perpetuate those skills, and to encourage the
individual accomplishments of the men and women it
employs worldwide.
Throughout the year, the companies of the LVMH Group take
part in meetings organized on the campuses of engineering
schools, business schools, design schools and schools specia-
lizing in the expertise specific to their businesses. Presenta-
tions, conferences, forums, participation in educational
programs, hosting interns, sponsorship of young artists and
designers are all opportunities for the companies in LVMH
Group to identify and develop talent and to publicize the
richness of each business line.
In 2004, LVMH also published the third edition of the “Guide
to Creativity” in partnership with the Italian magazine “Fashion.”
This publication, which profiles more than fifty young jewelry,
accessory and fashion designers, is another example of the
LVMH Group’s policy of supporting young designers.
LV MH is a group composed of about fifty brands operating
in various luxury businesses. Social cohesion is one of the key
factors in its success. In the last several years, the Group
has implemented an innovative internal and external corporate
policy that in large part explains the commitment of
its employees. LVMH defends the values of a socially
responsible group. Integrity, equity, solidarity and a respect
for ethical rules in brand management and employee
development are requirements that the Group demands from
itself every day and shares with all its employees worldwide.
Implementing these values is one of the daily responsibilities
of managers and senior executives in all LVMH companies.
