To secure the future of our métiers d’excellence
(professions of excellence), we must make younger
generations aware of them. The “Excellent!” program
has already raised awareness of our expertise among
3,080 middle school students. The 2023 You & ME
tour, which featured events held in 7 cities (4 in France
and 3 in Italy), included many demonstrations of the
Group’s expertise and promoted over 4,500 offers for
internships, work-linked training contracts and jobs.
The Group also promoted apprenticeships through
LVMH’s Institut des Métiers d’Excellence (IME). The
IME had a record year in 2023, training more than
700 apprentices between the ages of 15 and 60, from
a wide variety of backgrounds, in 7 countries (France,
Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Japan, Germany and the
United States). Since 2014, more than 2,700 people
have completed training through the IME.
LVMH’s Académie des Métiers d’Excellence (AME)
training program enables our talent to expand
their skills throughout their careers. More than
30,000 employees took one of the 288 training
courses on offer during the year.
Made up of craftspeople, creative professionals and
sales associates who have achieved exceptional
careers, the community of LVMH Virtuosos – which
welcomed 63 new members during the year – is
another key initiative to share the passion and exper-
tise of these professions of excellence with younger
generations in particular.
LVMH will soon inaugurate “La Maison des Métiers
d’Excellence LVMH”, a physical location in Paris
dedicated to passing on exceptional skills and expertise
to a wide range of audiences. This new location is set
to open in late 2025.
Being able to count on
committed leadership
Our leaders must ensure optimal conditions for their
teams to reach their full potential. To support them
in this vital role, the training courses offered by LVMH
House – LVMH’s learning and development think
tank – bring together hundreds of leaders from
across all of the organization’s businesses, Maisons,
markets and functions.
LVMH House’s training sessions reflect the excep-
tional professional, geographical, cultural and genera-
tional diversity of the Group’s talent. This collaborative
learning, which takes place in an environment conducive
to mutual enrichment, strengthens cohesion and team
spirit. The “Leading for the Future” leadership program
is also being rolled out, with a target of having all
Group leaders complete it to boost their ability to
support and develop their teams.
With an emphasis on career mobility and intercultural
dialogue, these programs prepare leaders to navigate
a globalized environment while respecting and valuing
specific local features. This “glocal”, inclusive approach is
fundamental for LVMH, which, in addition to its prom-
inent economic role, aims to be a driver of change.
The involvement of leaders from a variety of back-
grounds is also a source of inspiration and motivation
for our employees, particularly those from communities
that have traditionally been underrepresented. This
visible celebration of diversity helps promote a sense of
inclusion and belonging, which in turn boosts employees’
self-confidence and commitment to the Company.
As part of the global Game Changers Together program,
the HR team worked to make employees an even
more central focus of all the decisions and actions
taken by LVMH and its Maisons.
This inclusive program started out by asking all human
resources staff to complete a survey on HR priorities and
transformative elements to take into account in order to
address future challenges. Based on the findings of this
survey, 24 meetings were held during a two-month period
all over the world. They enabled more than 2,000 human
resources executives and managers to discuss and take
action on key topics including career development
and mobility, promoting careers in retail, inclusive
leadership and overseeing transformation projects.
Diverse by nature,
inclusive by choice
Combating all forms of prejudice is essential to ensuring
a positive, motivating working environment. For this
reason, at the end of 2022 LVMH launched an online
training course on unconscious bias – the first of its
kind available to all Group employees – which has
