Many companies utilize the words “Global Mobility” to refer to the singular activity of deploying an employee to another country. However, truly effective Global Mobility strategy is much more than just relocation. It is a strategic step, as important as any key business process.
It should be viewed as the opportunity to create value and as an intentional step in the development of your human capital. In other words, Global Mobility is one of the most important aspects of your overall Talent Development strategy and factors in to that process to prepare candidates at any stage of their career path to develop both themselves and their company for continued future success.
Our approach to Global Mobility creates a dynamic space that allows a company to assess the developmental value of the assignment and compare it with the business value of deploying that employee. Based on this assessment, we can create flexible mobility packages. In order to get you there we take four key steps:
We assess your company’s current Talent Management Strategy, including workforce planning and talent analytics.
We develop the right internal and external infrastructure.
We align your company’s current and future business goals to its Human Resources goals and current structure. We take your current situation and visualize it in a global capacity so that current and future deployments fit correctly into future plans.
Finally, we set measurable outcomes in place to ensure the final product contributes to your business goals.
Our Global Mobility scope includes four stages:
- Pre-placement,
- Mobility/deployment
- Host country assimilation and
- End-of-assignment planning.
Each of these stages has specific elements that must be present to ensure success. We have the expertise to walk you through our model and customize the program to ensure it is cost effective while never cutting corners.
