Jakarta, 17 September 2025 — Asian Bulk Logistics (ABL) officially launched the Graduate Development Program (GDP) 2025, a one-year transformative journey designed to prepare high-potential graduates as the future leaders of ABL Group.
The program is structured to nurture a strong business mindset, sharpen leadership capabilities, and cultivate strategic thinking aligned with ABL’s vision of sustainable growth. Through onboarding, structured training, immersive site visits, on-the-job rotations, mentoring, and professional coaching, participants will embark on a holistic development journey that combines knowledge, hands-on exposure, and leadership cultivation.
During the ABL GDP 2025 Kick-Off, President Director Ibu Ika Heru Beth Ari delivered an inspiring message to the selected graduates:
“Out of thousands of applicants, only 10 have successfully passed the rigorous selection process. Congratulations to all of you for earning this opportunity. The Graduate Development Program is not just about learning, it is an investment to prepare future leaders who will shape ABL’s culture and carry forward the company’s succession. IQ is important, but your attitude, behavior, and mindset will determine how far you can go. Embrace a growth mindset: keep learning, do not be afraid of mistakes, ask the right questions, and stay open minded. Trust the process, because what you put into this journey—your effort, your heart, and your resilience—will return to you as results. We expect you not only to learn from us, but also to bring fresh perspectives, challenge routines, and contribute new ideas. That is how you will create lasting impact for ABL.”
Her message captures the true essence of the Graduate Development Program: a platform not only to learn, but to lead, innovate, and grow into the next generation of leaders who will shape the future of ABL.
