Global Mobility Solutions
After working in the Global Relocation industry for over 20 years, as well as in the health and productivity sector, we know what assignees need to thrive in a new environment, both professionally, and as importantly, personally. A strategic approach to how your organization supports the assignee, family, and the local business is paramount to your global success.
International Assignments are notably costly and failure to meet business objectives is not uncommon. At minimum your international assignee program should include the following suite of services.
Intercultural Training & Coaching builds bridges beyond the business realm. Strategically-minded executives across industries understand the need to develop cultural agility and intercultural understanding. Leaders and organizations that arm their transferees and their teams with the skills to communicate and work across cultures, build consensus, drive change, and prosper in international business.
Intercultural solutions include:
- Global Competence Assessment
- Individuals training and coaching
- Group training and coaching
- E-Learning
Language Training is a vital component of an organization’s global mobility strategy. It is a natural partner to cultural training providing your transferee with the opportunity for greater insight and understanding. In addition, language acquisition shows a significant commitment to the host culture and community, regardless of level of fluency.
Language Acquisition enables global leaders to connect deeper with colleagues, suppliers, and business partners. Moreover, families also benefit from learning the host language as it mitigates a significant obstacle to their adaptation, allowing for a smoother and more successful assignment. Ultimately, it saves costs in the long run since language barriers can be an obstacle to performance, and assignment success.
Language Training can be provided in a variety of ways, virtual, in person, or even via e-learning. A blended learning approach with both e-learning and instructor led training can offer the best outcomes. Instructor led training, shether virtual or in person, can be provided pre-departure or post-arrival via:
- Individual instruction
- Group instruction
