Bukluran 2024: Forging stronger Cebuana Lhuillier leaders through wellness and collaboration

Cebuana Lhuillier’s annual Bukluran event is a cornerstone of the company’s commitment to fostering unity, collaboration, and holistic leadership. The name Bukluran, derived from the Filipino word “buklod” meaning “that which unites or brings together,” reflects the essence of this event — celebrating the collective strength of Cebuana Lhuillier’s leadership team. In a large and dynamic organization like Cebuana Lhuillier, with over 11,000 employees spread across various regions and business units, the importance of synergy among leaders cannot be overstated. Bukluran plays a pivotal role in strengthening collaboration at the leadership level, creating a ripple effect that enhances harmony within teams and drives overall productivity. This event is a vital touchstone in ensuring that the leadership team is aligned and equipped to guide the organization toward continued success and growth.

Held at the tranquil Nawa Wellness in Calatagan, Batangas, this year’s gathering brought together all managers and executive leaders from across the organization. With the objectives of fostering collaboration within diverse teams, promoting wellness, and encouraging creative problem-solving, Bukluran 2024 set the stage for a transformative experience.

Jean Henri Lhuillier, President and CEO of Cebuana Lhuillier, emphasized the significance of the event in his opening message: “At Cebuana Lhuillier, we believe that our strength lies in our people. Bukluran is a reflection of our commitment to nurturing a collaborative and innovative culture while ensuring the well-being of our leaders. Together, we will continue to achieve milestones, inspire excellence, and create a positive impact on the communities we serve.”

Jo-Ann Tacorda, Cebuana Lhuillier Chief Administrative Officer, emphasizes its transformative impact: “Bukluran is more than just a tradition—it’s a cornerstone of our culture. It brings our people together, inspires collaboration, and fosters a sense of belonging that empowers our teams to achieve more, together. This unity is what drives our success and sustains our growth.”

On the first day, participants engaged in team-building activities designed to strengthen interpersonal connections and collaboration. These exercises highlighted the value of diverse perspectives and fostered trust among team members. The day concluded with a lively social gathering, encouraging deeper camaraderie in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

Day two was dedicated to rejuvenation and self-care, starting with breathwork and stretching exercises to promote mindfulness. A meal preparation demonstration offered practical insights into maintaining a balanced lifestyle.

Nawa Wellness is a sanctuary designed to nurture the mind, body, and soul. Known for its breathtaking views of lush greenery and serene ambiance, the venue is a haven for those seeking peace and rejuvenation. It features a range of thoughtfully curated spaces, including open-air pavilions, tranquil gardens, and state-of-the-art facilities, making it an ideal setting for both intimate and large-scale events. With its dedication to promoting holistic health, Nawa Wellness offers amenities such as wellness workshops, yoga studios, and spa services that enhance the overall experience for guests. This makes it a fitting choice for Bukluran 2024, where participants can come together to celebrate unity, growth, and shared purpose in a space that embodies harmony and well-being.

As Cebuana Lhuillier embarks on another year of milestones, Bukluran 2024 serves as a reminder of the unifying values that drive its success. Through collaboration, innovation, and wellness, Cebuana Lhuillier leaders are equipped to navigate challenges and seize opportunities with renewed vigor.
